A classic treatment of the morality of war written by one of our country's leading philosophers, with a new introduction considering the wars in Bosnia and Kosovo. Just and Unjust Wars examines a variety of conflicts in order to understand exactly why, according to Walzer,the argument about war and justice is still a political and moral necessity.” Walzer's classic work draws on historical illustrations that range all the way from the Athenian attack on Melos to this morning's headlines, and uses the testimony of participantsdecision makers and victims aliketo examine the moral issues of warfare.

I found this book after reading the following in another book, “The West Point Way of Leadership”:
“Independence of mind is taught at West Point in several venues, including a particularly challenging course in moral philosophy. One of the texts used for this course is “Just and Unjust Wars” by Michael Walzer. In addition to his academic and authorial credentials, Walzer was a Vietnam-era peace activist. The book grew out of his desire to resolve the troubling issues of that war which affected him ard many others of his generation—including West Pointers. This book is a groundbreaker in the study of war; no modern moral theorist has so cogently articulated just-war theory with specific his¬torical lessons for those who may make war in the future. Year by year, West Point is probably the most substantial buyer of Walzer’s book.
“In the study of this book, the Academy draws the cadets into critically examining the moral issues raised by U.S. mili¬tary history and policy. This kind of scrutiny forces cadets at times to call into question the mission, and even the sense of themselves, that brought them to the Academy in the first place. The equivalent would be business schools offering courses to question the value of capitalism, or to debate whether routine business practices can be justified.
“Why does the Academy think it a good idea to elevate the cadets’ sensitivity to moral issues of going to war and fighting wars? Why should leaders think about the basic morality of their situations? It’s crucial because leadership entails having a mind broad enough to sense when the organization is wrong and a heart courageous enough to do something to fix it.”
I’ll add to the above by saying “Just and Unjust Wars” is exceptionally well researched and written, even elegant at times. In reading it, I’m reminded at times of the movie “Paper Chase” with Professor Kingsfield’s Socratic-method questions and answers, followed by more questions and answers, spinning the tumblers of one’s mind, turning one’s skull full of mush into a mind thinking like a lawyer...about right and wrong. I cannot add much more than Henry J’s excellent review other than to say that, for me, the author gave interesting insights and background on various wars I have not seen anywhere else. I was especially intrigued with his section on the
Vietnam War, the source of much Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among veterans, with a lot of it caused by the inability to sort out what was the “right” thing to have done, resulting in much misery as one self-assaults one’s own character for having acted one way or the other in a cauldron of moral dilemmas. While the book doesn’t deal with PTSD as such—in fact the term doesn’t even show up in the book—for some such-afflicted readers it may help by putting into perspective the difficulty mankind has confronted over the millennia as it has searched for what in warring is just and unjust.
For anyone who’s involved in war, as a soldier, a spectator, a person wondering about martial history, or someone just curious about his/her own character when placed in extremely challenging, life and death, existential situations, I highly recommend this book!

At first sight, I did not like Walzers book. I found his frequent citations of novels, essays etc. unnecessarily pompous and somewhat annoying. However, Walzers book is actually by no means inaccessible to the casual reader, and his analysis is in general clear and properly thought out.
Walzer considers many aspects of the ethics of war. Most of the book is concerned with the question of when and how wars may be just, although considerable time is also given to the question of how a war - just or unjust - may be fought justly. Among Walzers historical examples are the Franco-Prussian war, The six-day war, the Vietnam war, the Korean war and World war II. His themes range widely, including when agression in the face of anticipation is justified, when interventions in already existing wars are justified, whether humanitarian interventions are justified, to name a few. Walzer also considers the rather interesting cases of guerilla war and terrorism, and gives a good deal of attention to the question of justifying civilian casualties.
Walzers book is not meant to be, and cannot in any sense be considered, the final word on the ethics of war. Several of Walzers arguments may be applied to other of his historical cases to obtain different conclusions - one prominent example is the bombing of German cities during the second world war, which seems rather similar to terrorism.
What can be said definitively, however, is that Walzers book is generally well-written and well-argued, provides ample food for thought and clearly illustrates many of the dilemmas of war which are sensed by most people by casual inspection, but which may be difficult to elucidate without considerable thought.
