Book synopsis

The targeting and killing of alleged terrorists has become an established practice in the fight against terrorism. Its disturbing implications place it among the most urgent issues to be scrutinized in moral philosophy and legal theory.Anna Goppel analyzes the justifiability of the targeted killing of terrorists, both from a moral and an international legal perspective. Her study is of particular relevance to scholars interested in terrorism, counter-terrorism, and human rights. It shows that targeted killings of terrorists can be justified only in very specific and rather theoretical cases.
