Book Description
The war in Heaven was not about force! Satan's plan threatened accountability by offering a "do as you please" program without penalty. This book explains how both ancient and modern Gadiantons have used this "freedom plan" to get elected. It also shows how parents unknowingly use this plan when they adopt the many "love without law" programs taught by the philosophies of men. This book exposes Satan's popular deceptions by helping readers understand the difference between choice, freedom and agency.

Routledge Handbook of Ethics and War
Author: Fritz Allhoff
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136260994
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 605
Book Description
This new Handbook offers a comprehensive overview of contemporary extensions and alternatives to the just war tradition in the field of the ethics of war. The modern history of just war has typically assumed the primacy of four particular elements: jus ad bellum, jus in bello, the state actor, and the solider. This book will put these four elements under close scrutiny, and will explore how they fare given the following challenges: • What role do the traditional elements of jus ad bellum and jus in bello—and the constituent principles that follow from this distinction—play in modern warfare? Do they adequately account for a normative theory of war? • What is the role of the state in warfare? Is it or should it be the primary actor in just war theory? • Can a just war be understood simply as a response to territorial aggression between state actors, or should other actions be accommodated under legitimate recourse to armed conflict? • Is the idea of combatant qua state-employed soldier a valid ethical characterization of actors in modern warfare? • What role does the technological backdrop of modern warfare play in understanding and realizing just war theories? Over the course of three key sections, the contributors examine these challenges to the just war tradition in a way that invigorates existing discussions and generates new debate on topical and prospective issues in just war theory. This book will be of great interest to students of just war theory, war and ethics, peace and conflict studies, philosophy and security studies.

The Oxford Handbook of War
Author: Julian Lindley-French
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191628409
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 736
Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of War is the definitive analysis of war in the twenty-first century. With over forty senior authors from academia, government and the armed forces world-wide the Handbook explores the history, theory, ethics and practice of war. The Handbook first considers the fundamental causes of war, before reflecting on the moral and legal aspects of war. Theories on the practice of war lead into an analysis of the strategic conduct of war and non Western ways of war. The heart of the Handbook is a compelling analysis of the military conduct of war which is juxtaposed with consideration of technology, economy, industry, and war. In conclusion the volume looks to the future of this apparently perennial feature of human interaction.

Defense Base Act and War Hazards Compensation Act Handbook
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780769887203
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
The 2013 Edition of this handbook is the only practical guide published on the Defense Base Act and War Hazards Compensation Act. The two primary federal statutes which address these matters are the Defense Base Act ("DBA") [42 U.S.C.S. ℗ʹ 1651 et seq.] and the War Hazards Compensation Act ("WHCA") [42 U.S.C.S. ℗ʹ 1701 et seq.]. The general purpose of the DBA is to provide uniform and generous compensation benefits to certain civilian employees "domestic and foreign" of private companies doing work overseas in furtherance of American foreign policy. The general purpose of the WHCA is to shift to the United States government the costs of compensating certain civilian employees "domestic and foreign" of private companies who are working overseas in furtherance of American foreign policy and are injured or killed by a war risk hazard.Much has happened in the DBA world since our first and second editions went to press in 2008 and 2010. While there has been a significant wind-down of civilian contractors in Iraq, significant numbers continue to be employed to assist the efforts of the United States in its military activity in Afghanistan as well as in "public work" around the globe. Moreover, the "tail" from Iraq will be with us for many years to come. As you will see in this 2013 edition, we emphasize new case law in the areas of average weekly wage, exclusivity benefits under the DBA, adjudication and appeals and War Hazards Compensation Act. We have expanded the chapter on the War Hazards Compensation Act to include interesting "Bulletins" from the U.S. Department of Labor agencies involved with the administration of this law. We have also added a new chapter, Chapter 14, on claimant attorney fees--a topic that has been the subject of much controversy in recent years at the administrative, trial and appellate levels in both traditional Longshore and Defense Base Act cases.This handbook combines expert analysis of the substantive law with practice tips and other helpful tools. The handbook is written for attorneys, insurance companies, claims adjusters, judges, defense contractors, injured workers, and others. It provides the reader with a basic introduction to the Defense Base Act, its history and purpose, current events, and a list of common acronyms and terminology. The handbook discusses coverage issues, underwriting, waivers, exclusivity rules, types of benefits, the claims process, discovery issues, average weekly wage calculations, zone of special danger doctrine, commutations, settlements, and death benefits. There's also a chapter on the War Hazards Compensation Act and how benefits are obtained under that Act. At the end of the handbook, a full reprint of Defense Base Act and War Hazards Compensation Act statutes and the Longshore Harbor and Workers' Compensation Act statutes are provided.

Handbook of Resilience in Children of War
Author: Chandi Fernando
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461463750
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Their frightened, angry faces are grim reminders of the reach of war. They are millions of children, orphaned, displaced, forced to flee or to fight. And just as they have myriad possibilities for trauma, their lives also hold great potential for recovery. The Handbook of Resilience in Children of War explores these critical phenomena at the theoretical, research, and treatment levels, beginning with the psychosocial effects of exposure to war. Narratives of young people's lives in war zones as diverse as Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Columbia, and Sudan reveal the complexities of their experiences and the meanings they attach to them, providing valuable keys to their rehabilitation. Other chapters identify strengths and limitations of current interventions, and of constructs of resilience as applied to youth affected by war. Throughout this cutting-edge volume, the emphasis is on improving the field through more relevant research and accurate, evidence-based interventions, in such areas as: An ecological resilience approach to promoting mental health in children of war. Child soldiers and the myth of the ticking time bomb. The Child Friendly Spaces postwar intervention program. The role of education for war-zone immigrant and refugee students. Political violence, identity, and adjustment in children. The Handbook of Resilience in Children of War is essential reading for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in diverse fields including clinical child, school, and developmental psychology; child and adolescent psychiatry; social work; counseling; education; and allied medical and public health disciplines.
