By Walter McDonald

Book Overview

Some Ethical Questions of Peace and War: With Special Reference to Ireland is a book written by Walter McDonald in 1919. The book focuses on the ethical questions that arise during times of peace and war, with a particular emphasis on the situation in Ireland at the time. McDonald explores the moral implications of various actions taken during war, such as the use of propaganda, the treatment of prisoners of war, and the targeting of civilians. He also examines the concept of a just war, and whether or not the conflicts in Ireland meet the criteria for such a designation. Throughout the book, McDonald argues for the importance of ethical considerations in times of conflict, and emphasizes the need for a more conscientious approach to war and peace. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the ethical dimensions of war and peace, as well as the history of Ireland in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
