Philosophers Speak Out about
War, Terrorism, and Peace
In the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, philosophers around the country and across the world are writing about issues of war, terrorism, and peace. This page is a clearing house for posting those pieces or links to articles, op-ed pieces, etc. by moral and political philosophers. I've added a couple short pieces of my own to get things started.
If you have something that you would like to see posted, please send it to Larry Hinman.
