The Morality of Defensive Force
"This book provides an account of the central moral principles that regulate the permissible use of defensive force. Quong argues that we cannot understand the morality of defensive force until we ask and answer deeper questions about how the use of defensive force fits with a more general account of justice and moral rights.

By systematic comparison of numerous case studies, the purview broadens away from myopic microanalysis in search...
