Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is always appropriate to ask whether an expedient foreign policy is morally justifiable, just as it is always appropriate to ask whether a morally defensible policy is consistent with the national interest. The ongoing dialogue between morality and realpolitik gives much of foreign policy debate its characteristic bite. In this collection of essays, a distinguished group of philosophers, political theorists, and lawyers– including Russell Hardin and Marshall Cohen–explore these contrasting themes. In essays that are at once insightful and accessible, noted political thinkers examine the tension of the conflicting demands of morality and national self-interest in the context of the foundations of international order, the possession and use of nuclear weapons, recourse to war, and the prospects for peace. A final postscript addresses the question of the responsibility of intellectuals in the national foreign policy debate. This book will appeal to scholars and students in any discipline dealing with international affairs as well as to lay readers who wish to explore the implications of taking morality and reason seriously in foreign policy.

Book excerpt: The nuclear proliferation dilemmas of the second nuclear age are irreducibly moral or ethical, and the political/strategic success in addressing them depend upon treating them first and foremost as problems of political theory. A moral ethnographic account of the main justificatory discourses for nuclear weaponization is undertaken to support two claims. One, that the main theoretical anchors employed to politically justify nuclear weapons aspirations - e.g., "security", "identity", and "retribution"--Are irreducibly moral. Secondly, that these discourses are evidence that state and non-state nuclear aspirants are (knowingly or not) implicated in at least one of the following interrelated moral dilemmas: (1) morality and law, (2) obligation and ignorance, (3) competing moral requirements, and (4) contradictory moral rules. Under current international conditions, these dilemmas appear not to be resolvable. Only if a radical transformation of thought and action is undertaken will the moral dilemmas of the second nuclear age be transcended. I conclude by exploring at least two avenues of such transformation. Ultimately, my dissertation enables future research that evaluates the moral validity of each justificatory discourse and draws conclusions for theoretical and policy-oriented research.

Download or read book Abolition of Nuclear Weapons as a Moral Imperative written by John Kultgen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abolition of Nuclear Weapons as a Moral Imperative argues that the use of nuclear weapons as a threat in policies of nuclear deterrence violate basic principles of morality and consequently the abolition of nuclear weapons from the world is a moral imperative nations that have them. The focus is on the United States since it will have to take the lead in any program of abolition. The argument is formulated in terms accessible to theorists in different disciplines and activists in a large range of causes. It appeals to principles that are widely shared but whose application to national policies, especially to deterrence by threats of mass destruction, has been debated ever since nuclear weapons were developed. The book explains what is meant by the "immorality" of a national policy, the stake which citizens have in their agents acting morally and the role of their opinions in seeing that they do. The argument of the book is couched in terms of consequences. The effects of the U.S.'s nuclear deterrent on the probability of nuclear war are difficult to calculate; but the harms for the country and others across the globe caused by the immense apparatus necessary to make U.S. threats credible are sufficient to condemn the policy. The last part of the book is devoted to way the U.S. can take the lead in safe and effective steps necessary to abolish the weapons and prevent their reintroduction into the world.
