For those seeking to understand terrorism's morality.

The Morality of Terrorism clarifies right from wrong.

You will gain insight into justice and ethical choices.

Explore the complex moral landscape of terrorism and freedom fighting in Haig A Khatchadourian's insightful book, which challenges you to think critically about justice and human rights.

The Morality of Terrorism argues that terrorism violates certain human rights, just war, and consequentialist moral principles, and so is always wrong. In distinguishing ""freedom fighting"" from terrorism, this study lays down stringent conditions derived from just war theory, for the moral justifiability of ""freedom fighting"" such as some revolutions, civil wars, and guerrilla warfare. This book then evaluates the morality of actual and possible judicial and military responses to terrorism by targeted governments. An appendix provides a case study (the Palestinian problem) of root causes of political and moralistic-religious terrorism. Haig Khatchadourian is Emeritus Professor of Philosophy at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukie. He received his PhD in philosophy from Duke University and has been awarded several prizes for poetry and literary essays. In 1973 he received the Outstanding Educator of America Award.
