Where it came from
Ethics of War and the Force of Law, published in 2020 by Routledge as part of the Taylor & Francis Group, emerged from Uwe Steinhoff’s extensive scholarly work in political philosophy and normative ethics. The book represents a focused academic contribution to just war theory, specifically examining the moral foundations of legal norms governing the conduct of war. Steinhoff aimed to provide a rigorous philosophical defense of a revisionist account of war, challenging traditionalist frameworks that often conflate legal requirements with moral imperatives.
The design and content of the work are typical of high-level academic monographs intended for researchers, students, and practitioners in international relations and legal philosophy. Steinhoff, a professor at the University of Hong Kong, has built a reputation for exploring the intersections of liberty and state authority. Upon its release, the text was received by the academic community as a dense, polemical, and technically precise addition to contemporary literature on the ethics of killing in war, continuing the discourse established by influential scholars such as Jeff McMahan.
