The Ethics of Protecting Heritage in War

Frowe and Matravers argue that the value of protecting heritage in war needs to be balanced against the need to safeguard other goods, including human life. Heritage is not morally special; rather, heritage is one of many goods that contribute to individuals' lives going well.
