Description
This updated and revised second edition of Donald A.
Wells's popular War Crimes and Laws of War, originally published in 1984, traces the rules of war since ancient times.
The major sources of the rules or "laws" of war are explored: the congresses of the Hague, Geneva, and the United Nations.
But an abyss exists between what military manuals allow and what the congresses prohibit; this book attempts to resolve this dilemma.
An important text for military college courses and international relations, as well as social philosophy courses.
Co-published with the North American Society for Social Philosophy. :
