Justice and the Just War Tradition

Human Worth, Moral Formation, and Armed Conflict

By: Christopher J. Eberle

Justice and the Just War Tradition articulates a distinctive understanding of the reasons that can justify war, of the reasons that cannot justify war, and of the role that those reasons should play in the motivational and attitudinal lives of the citizens, soldiers, and statesmen who participate in war. Eberle does so by relying on a robust conception of human worth, rights, and justice. He locates this theoretical account squarely in the Just War Tradition. But his account is not merely theoretical: Justice and the Just War Tradition has a variety of practical aims, one of the most important of which is to serve as an aid to moral formation. The hope is that citizens, soldiers, and statesmen whose emotions and aspirations have been shaped by the Just War Tradition will be able to negotiate violent communal conflict in ways that respect the demands of justice. So Justice and the Just War Tradition articulates a theoretically satisfying and practically engaging account of the reasons that count in favor of war. Moreover, Eberle develops that account by engaging contemporary theorists, both philosophical and theological, by according due deference to venerable contributors to the Just War Tradition, and by integrating insights from military memoire, the history of war, and the author's experience of teaching ethics at the United States Naval Academy.

Truth, Community, and the Prophetic Voice

Michael Walzer, Stanley Hauerwas, and Cornel West on Justice and Peace

By: Christopher J. Libby

The central concern of Truth, Community, and the Prophetic Voice is to ask how it might be possible today to uphold an understanding of the prophetic voice that comports in essential ways with its expression in the biblical vision, while attending especially to contemporary judgments regarding the epistemological significance of community and concerns about the nature and function of claims to truth. Ultimately and more specifically, Christopher J. Libby hopes to gain some purchase on what an adequate contemporary Christian theological rendering of the prophetic looks like. He argues that it is not only possible to provide a non-foundationalist account of the prophetic voice, but that that voice is able to come truly into its own when cast in a non-foundationalist frame.
