Description

This Routledge book explores the ethical positions advocated by churches and moral philosophers in the nuclear weapons debate. Davidson traces the development of just-war theory, the predominant moral framework in Western thought on warfare, and synthesises contemporary ethical perspectives on principles derived from this tradition. The work documents detailed positions from influential thinkers including Reinhold Niebuhr, Paul Ramsey, Michael Walzer, and James Turner Johnson, examining their arguments regarding nuclear weapons first use, retaliatory strategies, deterrence policy, the nuclear freeze proposal, arms race escalation, and disarmament initiatives. Essential reading for students of religious ethics, theology, peace studies, and military philosophy seeking rigorous analysis of how Christian thought addresses weapons of mass destruction and modern strategic policy.
