β¦ Synopsis
"Targeting Terrorists: A License to Kill?" examines the political history and ethics of targeted killing. Plaw's analysis addresses the questions of moral, political and legal justification and discusses contemporary issues surrounding targeted killing in the context of the current 'war on terror' and legitimate/illegitimate forms of counterterrorism. This study is a current debate with intellectual significance. Especially given the increasing number of politically motivated assassinations being conducted despite the virtual absence of a sustained public and scholarly debate on the means and ends of targeted killing.It discusses an increasing concern to global politics with a good balance between theory and case studies. Crossing a number of disciplines, it is highly relevant for courses on ethics, politics, international relations and international law.
