• Crynodeb: Explores a variety of ways of thinking ethically about drone violenceExplores how drone violence works in different circumstances, its complexities and various effects, and ways of judging it morally9 substantive chapters demonstrate different ways of thinking ethically about the current and future use of lethal drone technologyPresents ethical assessments based on ideas within and beyond traditional Just War theoryAddresses the ongoing policy concern that state use of drone violence is sometimes poorly understood and inadequately governedIncorporates disciplinary perspectives from military ethics, critical military studies, international law, international relations, gender studies, and historyContributors include established and emerging scholars from a diversity of backgroundsThe violent use of armed, unmanned aircraft (‘drones’) is increasing worldwide, but uncertainty persists about the moral status of remote-control killing and why it should be restrained. Practitioners, observers and potential victims of such violence often struggle to reconcile it with traditional expectations about the nature of war and the risk to combatants. Addressing the ongoing policy concern that state use of drone violence is sometimes poorly understood and inadequately governed, the book’s ethical assessments are not restricted to the application of traditional Just War principles, but also consider the ethics of artificial intelligence (AI), virtue ethics, and guiding principles for forceful law-enforcement. This edited collection brings together nine original contributions by established and emerging scholars, incorporating expertise in military ethics, critical military studies, gender, history, international law and international relations, in order to better assess the multi-faceted relationship between drone violence and justice.
