Proxy war ethics: the norms of partnering in great power competition
In: Palgrave studies in international relations
Proxies can effectively transfer risk and lower the costs of international competition; however, they set conditions for moral failure and hazard. Applying the framework of the Just War Tradition, this book addresses how international actors can address those challenges and establish ethical and effective security relationships. DR. C.
