The book "War by Agreement" presents a new approach to understanding the ethics of war based on contractual principles. It argues that war can be justified when it is necessary to protect the freedom and autonomy of individuals and groups. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding the evolution of technology and its impact on society, as well as the need for a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process of developing modern knowledge. This paradigm should be based on the survival of humanity and the unity of people in a warring state. The book begins by examining the concept of war and its various forms, including conventional wars, guerrilla wars, and cyber wars. It then explores the role of technology in these conflicts, highlighting how advancements in weapons and communication have changed the nature of warfare. The author also discusses the implications of war for individuals and societies, including the loss of life, destruction of property, and long-term psychological trauma. The author argues that traditional justifications for war, such as self-defense and national defense, are no longer sufficient in today's world. Instead, he proposes a contractarian approach to ethics, which emphasizes individual freedom and autonomy as the basis for moral decision-making. He contends that this approach can help us better understand the complexities of war and develop more effective strategies for resolving conflicts peacefully.
В книге «Война по соглашению» представлен новый подход к пониманию этики войны на основе договорных принципов. В нем утверждается, что война может быть оправдана, когда необходимо защитить свободу и автономию отдельных лиц и групп. Автор подчеркивает важность понимания эволюции технологии и ее влияния на общество, а также необходимость личностной парадигмы восприятия технологического процесса развития современных знаний. Эта парадигма должна основываться на выживании человечества и единстве людей в воюющем государстве. Книга начинается с изучения концепции войны и ее различных форм, включая обычные войны, партизанские войны и кибервойны. Затем он исследует роль технологий в этих конфликтах, подчеркивая, как достижения в области оружия и коммуникации изменили характер войны. Автор также обсуждает последствия войны для отдельных лиц и обществ, включая гибель людей, разрушение имущества и долгосрочные психологические травмы. Автор утверждает, что традиционных оправданий войны, таких как самооборона и национальная оборона, в современном мире уже недостаточно. Вместо этого он предлагает контрактарный подход к этике, который подчеркивает индивидуальную свободу и автономию как основу для принятия моральных решений. Он утверждает, что такой подход может помочь нам лучше понять сложности войны и разработать более эффективные стратегии мирного урегулирования конфликтов.
