The Hale Institute hosted Dr. Paul Miller, who spoke on the subject of 'Just War Theory." In this talk, Miller explores the evolving dynamics of just war theory in relation to individual rights and international law. He discusses the transformation from state-centric war to a focus on individual dignity, emphasizing the need for governments to wield military power responsibly. Miller critiques contemporary conflicts, arguing for an "Augustinian liberalism" that blends traditional just war principles with a modern understanding of humanitarian intervention. He advocates for post-conflict reconstruction and the moral imperative to uphold justice, peace, and individual dignity in warfare, providing a compelling vision for statecraft in the free world.
