In addition to the original participants on this panel, we are extremely lucky to have been able to locate such a fine group of scholars to con- tribute to this volume. It should be mentioned at the outset that most ofthecontributorstothisvolumetooktheirformalacademictrainingas political scientists, or were otherwise trained in the fields of politics and international relations. We therefore approach the just war tradition not onlyasaphilosophicaldoctrineorethicaltraditionaboutarmedconflict, but also as a political process, wherein certain acts and actors in inter- nationalrelationsmayormaynotbegrantedsomedegreeoflegitimacy. This volume thus construes “the just war tradition” in the broadest of termstoincludenotonlytheecclesiasticalwritingsassociatedwithearly Christianity,butalsoethicaltraditionsthatflowfromModernnaturallaw theory,variousstrandsofpoliticalandinternationalrelationstheory,con- temporarypositivistinternationallaw,andindeedthebroadernormative conversationaboutthelegitimacyofwar,whichnowspansovertwomil- lennia.Whileweinvokethejustwartraditioninthetitleofthisvolume, and employ it because it provides a familiar moral vocabulary about the legitimacy of war, few of the contributors to this volume actually con- sider themselves “just war theorists.” Rather, we are mainly scholars of international relations who are engaging in normative theorizing about a particularly salient issue in contemporary international affairs. In this sense, the volume before you is a synthesis of normative theory, interna- tional relations, ethics, philosophy, and international law, but is perhaps bestunderstoodasanexerciseininternationalpoliticaltheory. The reader may also notice that many of the contributors to this volume resemble what one reviewer referred to as “rising stars” in the field,ratherthan“establishedauthorities.”Weembracethislabelwhole- heartedly. It goes without saying that we are extremely grateful to have September19,2009 11:41 MAC-US/EAW Page-ix 9780230616745ts01
