Warrior's Honor: Ethnic War and the Modern Conscience

A report & refection on what Ignatieff has seen in the places where ethnic war has become a way of life. In a series of vivid portraits, he charts the rise of the new moral interventionists -- aid workers, reporters, peacekeepers, Red Cross delegates & diplomats -- who believe that other people's misery is of concern to us all. He brings us face to face with the new ethnic warriors -- the warlords, gunmen & paramilitaries -- who have escalated post-modern war to an unprecedented level of savagery. And he draws dramatic & startling realizations about the ambiguous ethics of engagement, & the limited force of moral justice in a world of war.Ignatieff, Michael is the author of 'Warrior's Honor: Ethnic War and the Modern Conscience', published 2000 under ISBN 9780788192951 and ISBN 0788192957.
