Скачать или смотреть The Same Old Problems? Ancient Military Ethics and Modern Conflicts

Excavating the origins of just war thought in the ancient Near East, Rory Cox will examine the characteristics of the earliest military ethics. He will then consider the extent to which modern wars are still subject to the same challenges concerning the fraught relationship between violence and justice, and whether any contemporary lessons can be drawn from the ancient past.
