Description

Explore the complex moral landscape of modern combat with Armed Drones and the Ethics of War: Military virtue in a post-heroic age. Published by Routledge, this academic text examines the ethical implications of using armed unmanned aerial vehicles, often called hunter-killer drones, in contemporary conflicts. As the American way of war shifts from heroic engagement toward a post-heroic model, this book analyzes the political preference for air-powered strategic risk management. It looks at how the reduction of physical risk to US personnel changes the nature of warfare. By studying the recent use of drones in the War on Terror, the text highlights how this technology transcends time and space. This work provides a necessary look at the lack of debate regarding the embrace of drone technology in the United States and across the globe. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of technology, international law, and military ethics.
