[NT 51398] Summary:	"War and Delusion" offers a fresh look at just war theory, which has dominated normative thought about war for centuries. This work examines the cultural milieu in which the just war paradigm arose and asks whether 'just war' rationalizations today constitute sound justifications or function rather as pro-military propaganda. By delving beneath the surface of the official stories written by victors to examine war's real effects b7 smoral, psychological, and physical-- upon both the perpetrators and the victims, "War and Delusion" reveals how the practice of modern war contradicts the most basic values and principles of modern Western democracies.
