166: Why Men Go Off to War


Listen Later

Talk Back to Me

By my estimation, since the Second World War, the West has taken for granted why men will voluntarily go off to war. It generally minimizes it into some semblance of the male fantasy or selfish ambition or patriotism. However, how we, ourselves make these decisions, or think about Just War Theory as individuals, has consequences for our lives that go well beyond internet clout. As it appears war is creeping into the lives of the individual, we must consider why it is we, ourselves, would consider going to war or engaging in violence at all.

The book mentioned early in this episode is "Killing in War" by Jeff McMahan.
