Introduction: Dilemmas in the War against Terrorism

Cohen, Samy

Pages: 1 –11

Democracies and the Ethics of War: The Record of the Past

Cochet, François

Pages: 15 –39

[Democracy in the contemporary sense of the term arose in the eighteenth century with the entry of the people into politics. It is worth noting that the beginnings of this upsurge (the War of Independence in America and the French Revolution) came simultaneously with the idea of the nation in...

The International Laws of War and the Fight against Terrorism

Decaux, Emmanuel

Pages: 41 –57

[The current language of the “war on terror” is doubly misleading. In political terms, the slogan coined by the United States has no precise definition; it stresses the means—intimidation and terror—employed by the enemy, but cannot identify that omnipresent yet invisible enemy, who thus benefits...

The French State Faced with the Algerian Nationalists (1954–1962): A War against Terrorism?

Branche, Raphaëlle

Pages: 59 –75

[During its last colonial war (Algeria, 1954–1962), France was a democracy that was very much torn between conflicting forces. The foundational values of its modern history (that originated in the French Revolution) and of its recent history (stemming from its victory over Nazism—at least as far...

Democracy and Norms of War: Locating Moral Responsibility for Atrocity in Iraq

Crawford, Neta C.

Pages: 103 –127

[Tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians, perhaps 40,000 people, have died since the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq, and many more thousands have been wounded by U.S. forces.2 No one knows for sure how many Iraqis, whether civilian or military, have died as a direct result of U.S. action. “We don’t do...

The British Way of Warfare and the Global War on Terror

Finlan, Alastair

Pages: 129 –145

[The Global War on Terror is a poor and misleading choice of words. Notwithstanding the gradual drift towards the term “the long war,” which is slightly more enlightening,1 it remains the description of choice for America’s counterpunch to the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre and the...

Between Humanitarian Logic and Operational Effectiveness: How the Israeli Army Faced the Second Intifada

The Armed Forces, Power, and Society: 18 Years of Counterinsurgency in Indian Kashmir

Grare, Frédéric

Pages: 173 –189

[More than 60 years after the independence of India and Pakistan, the partition of the Indian subcontinent is still not settled, and Kashmir remains a constant source of dispute between the two neighbors. Few conflicts have proved to be as resistant to attempts at solution and nothing, not even...
