註釋

This illuminating volume explores the opposing viewpoints of whether it is right to go to war. It investigates the facts behind the headlines, the history behind current trends, and the rights and wrongs of warfare. Teens learn about the concept of a “just war” and whether or not it is ethical to intervene because of human rights violations. They also examine international law and the Geneva Conventions––and who and what these protect. The book also covers combatants and noncombatants, unmanned weapons, religious views of war, “holy wars,” jihad, pacifism, nonviolence, peace agreements, and war crimes, among other hot-button topics.
