ABSTRACT For nearly two millennia just war doctrine has been central to Western understanding of justified resort to armed force, and of conduct in war. As the international system developed so the theory was first secularised and then all but rendered obsolete by a legal paradigm that sought first to establish states‘ rights and, later, to eliminate armed force as an instrument of international policy altogether. In the world order that has emerged after the Cold War, the legal paradigm has been found wanting. Just war doctrine is thus of renewed relevance as there remains a requirement for resort to force to be justified and for its conduct to be restrained. Contemporary security threats and a changed value-set have made Western governments more interventionist and concern over non-state actors, mass-destructive weaponry and the threats emerging from state failure have prompted some to argue a case for preventive war. Whilst a strictly legalist approach has proved unsatisfactory, just war doctrine offers a robust framework for debate in guiding our thinking about both intervention and pre-emptive self-defence. There are challenges to our traditional understanding of jus in bello presented both by Western technological dominance and by the preference for a different form of asymmetry on the part of the West‘s opponents. This is exacerbated by the appearance on the battlefield of a range of new actors. However, a thorough understanding of the moral principles underpinning our codes of conduct will offer a valuable – if not essential – tool not only to decision makers and commanders but to the individual fighting men and women who must make life and death decisions in the most demanding circumstances of the complex modern battlefield. i ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A part-time PhD is not an undertaking that can be lightly made, nor can it be successful without the support of the student‘s family and colleagues. Certainly I should not have been able to complete this study without forbearance and sacrifice on the part of my family for which I am hugely grateful. My colleagues and those for whom I have worked during the time I have pursued this study are also to be thanked for their support and encouragement. In particular, it could not have happened without Brigadier Jim Campbell, then Director of Studies at the Royal Military College of Science, and Colonel (now Brigadier) David Allfrey, then Assistant Director and for whom I worked directly when this project was started. Not only did they acquiesce in this additional call on my time but also they were enthusiastic in their encouragement and support. No study of this length is conducted in isolation and I must here acknowledge the many colleagues, both military and academic, discussion with whom has helped shape the views here expressed. I am also indebted to the very professional and dedicated staff of the Cranfield University (Shrivenham Campus) library, especially Lynn Seddon and her team, and to the excellent if somewhat under-sung team at the Prince Consort‘s Library in Aldershot. The team there that runs the Military Studies Library Service list of journal and press articles provided an invaluable resource. My Supervisor, Richard Holmes, has been a wonderful source not only of advice and guidance but also of enthusiasm. His encyclopaedic knowledge has pointed me in the direction of important source material that I may otherwise have overlooked, his eye for detail has picked up my lapses in grammar and logic (though for any that remain, I alone am responsible), and his irrepressible enthusiasm for everything he undertakes has kept me focussed when my energy has flagged. Finally, I dedicate this work to all those who have given their lives fighting justly in causes they have believed just. iii iv CONTENTS Abstract ………………………………………………………………………………... i Acknowledgements …………………………………………………………………… iii Contents ………………………………………………………………………………... v List of Figures …………………………………………………………………………. vi List of Tables ………………………………………………………………………..... vii List of Video Clips ........................................................................................................ vii Glossary of Acronyms ……………………………………………………………….... ix INTRODUCTION ............................................................................................................ 1 CHAPTER 1 : JUST WAR IN CONTEXT..................................................................... 5 1.1 Conceptual Framework........................................................................................... 5 1.1.1 Realism ............................................................................................................ 6 1.1.2 Liberalism. ..................................................................................................... 16 1.1.3 International Society ...................................................................................... 28 1.1.4 Other Perspectives ......................................................................................... 36 1.1.5 A Conceptual Place for Ethics ....................................................................... 40 1.2 Historical Context: The Origins and Development of Just War Doctrine ............ 47 1.2.1 The Early Church and the Conversion of Rome ............................................ 48 1.2.2 Aquinas and Development of the Theological Doctrine ............................... 50 1.2.3 Secularization and Early International Law .................................................. 53 1.2.4 Establishing the Legalist Paradigm: From The League of Nations and the Pact of Paris to the UN Charter Era ........................................................................ 58 1.3 Summary ............................................................................................................... 61 CHAPTER 2 : THE REQUIREMENT FOR ETHICAL JUSTIFICATION ................ 69 2.1 Introduction .......................................................................................................... 69 2.2 Why a Return to Ethics: The Legalist Paradigm Challenged ............................... 70 2.2.1 The Legalist Paradigm Examined ................................................................. 70 2.2.2 Structural Difficulties .................................................................................... 77 2.2.3 Practical Failings ........................................................................................... 85 2.2.3.1 Failure to Institute the Envisioned Mechanism for Enforcement .... 86 2.2.3.2 Widespread Disregard for Article 2(4) in Fact . ................................ 91 2.2.3.3 Lack of Faith in Institutions for Non-Forceful Settlement of Disputes ............................................................................................................................ 93 2.2.4 Reordering the Value Set: New World Order and Continued Failing of the Paradigm ................................................................................................................. 99 2.3 Why Justification?

  • Jus Post Bellum
    The Unjustness of the Current Incantation of Jus Post Bellum by Dan G. Cox us post bellum was originally conceived as an extension of modern just war theory. Specifically, it was aimed at examining the justness and morality of actions during war, jus in bello, in relationship to negotiations for peace in the post-war setting. Under the initial conception of Jjus post bellum, considerations of distinction of enemies from civilians, for example, takes on a more pointed meaning, as one has to calculate how much collateral damage is appropriate given the longer-term end-goal of successful and beneficial peace negotiations. Unfortunately, jus post bellum has recently been expanded to mean that the victor in the war is now responsible for the long-term well-being of the people it has defeated. This has led to a concerted outcry for post-war nation-building, which neither leads necessarily to successful negotiations, nor ensures a better or lasting peace. In fact, current conceptions of jus post bellum remove national interest from the equation altogether, replacing all military endeavors with one monolithic national interest—liberal imperialism.1 Further, current incantations of jus post bellum obviate the possibility of a punitive strike or punitive expedition, even though this might be exactly what is needed in certain cases to create a better peace than existed prior to conflict. This article is an exploration of the current incantation of jus post bellum. The concept of an incantation was chosen purposively, as proponents of jus post bellum are engaging in a dogmatic approach to war termination oblivious to the complexities and realities of conflict and, in fact, in violation of just war theory itself.

From Just War to Just Intervention Susan J. Atwood What is Just War? What is Just Intervention? This paper examines the evolution of the criteria for Just War from its origins in the early Christian church to the twenty-first century. The end of the Cold War era has expanded the discussion to include grounds for intervention. Indeed, in the 1990s, a number of multilat- eral interventions took place on humanitarian grounds. But the debate is ongoing about whether the criteria applied in the Just War theory — proper authority, just cause, and right intent — remain valid in an era of Just Intervention. The author examines as case studies some multilateral interven- tions and the lessons learned from them as we seek to develop the framework of international law to address the evolving theory and current practice of Just Intervention.

    The Injustice of the Current Incantation of Jus Post Bellum Dan G. Cox, Ph. D., School of Advanced Military Studies, US Army, [email protected] 9137583319 Abstract: Jus post bellum was originally conceived as an extension of modern just war theory. Specifically, it was aimed at examining the justness and morality of actions during war, jus in bello, in relationship to negotiations for peace in the post-war setting. Under the initial conception of jus post bellum, considerations of distinction of enemies from civilians, for example, takes on a more pointed meaning as one has to calculate how much collateral damage, even if allowed for in just in bello, is appropriate given the longer-term end-goal of successful and beneficial peace negotiations. Unfortunately, jus post bellum has been expanded to mean that the victor in the war is now responsible for the well-being of the people and/or nation it has defeated. This has led to a concerted cry for post-war nation-building which neither leads necessarily to successful negotiations nor ensures a better or lasting peace. In fact, current conceptions of jus post bellum remove national interest from the equation altogether replacing all military endeavors with one monolithic national interest; liberal imperialism1. Further, current incantations of jus post bellum obviate the possibility of a punitive strike or punitive expedition even though this might be exactly what is needed in certain cases to create a better peace than existed prior to conflict.

  • Military Operations in Libya
    Military Operations in Libya Standard Note: SN/IA/5909 Last updated: 24 October 2011 Author: Claire Taylor Section International Affairs and Defence Section On 17 March 2011 the UN Security Council adopted resolution 1973 (2011), under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, which authorised the use of force, including enforcement of a no-fly zone, enforcement of a UN arms embargo against Libya and to protect civilians and civilian areas targeted by the Qaddafi regime and its supporters. The weekend of 19/20 March saw French, British and US military action begin under Operation Odyssey Dawn. By the end of March command of that operation had been gradually transitioned to NATO. On 23 March NATO assumed command of operations to enforce the UN arms embargo. The transfer of command responsibility for the no-fly zone was agreed on 24 March; while the decision to transfer command and control for all military operations in Libya was taken on 27 March. NATO formally assumed command under Operation Unified Protector at 0600 hours on 31 March 2011. Military operations have been ongoing for seven months. During that time there have been criticisms of stalemate in the military campaign, allegations over burden sharing among NATO Member States, and questions over the existence of a viable exit strategy. Following the fall of Sirte and the death of Colonel Gadaffi, Libya’s transitional government declared liberation on 23 October 2011. The NATO Secretary General also confirmed in a statement that a preliminary decision had been taken to end Operation Unified Protector on 31 October 2011. However, he also went on to state that NATO would monitor the situation and retain the capacity to respond to threats to civilians if necessary.
