ABSTRACT The law of armed conflict prevents the coerced extraction of information from Prisoners of War (PoWs). We claim, however, that the letter of that law involves too broad a concept of coercion. On a natural reading, there is a sense in which any extraction of information—by any method—is coercive. We respect the notion that PoWs ought not be treated poorly, but we argue “coercion” should not be understood so broadly. With respect to its use in international law, we favor a moralized notion of “coercion,” as opposed to a non-moralized one. We explain what this means, and argue why this is a better reading of the law. We think a moralized notion of coercion is more intuitive, is more in line with both actual practice and the intent of the framers of international law, and has practical benefits as well.
武装冲突法禁止从战俘那里强制获取情报。然而,我们认为,该法律的文字包含了一个过于宽泛的强制概念。在一种自然的解读中,有一种感觉,即以任何方式提取信息都是强制性的。我们尊重战俘不应受到虐待的观点,但我们认为,“强迫”不应被如此宽泛地理解。关于在国际法中的使用,我们倾向于一个道德化的“强制”概念,而不是一个非道德化的概念。我们将解释这意味着什么,并论证为什么这是对法律的更好解读。我们认为,一个道德化的强制概念更直观,更符合实际实践和国际法制定者的意图,也有实际的好处。

The Shame of Military Immorality 军事不道德的耻辱

What should we call the willful and almost total neglect of military ethics? Maybe the term military immorality catches what we are after, signifying not only the theoretical beach but also the shocking practical neglect of the basic rules of military practice. As this editorial is being written, the conflict in Ukraine is getting more intractable and serious by the day. The situation may have changed by the time this issue reaches our readers. However, no matter the further development, the Russian state and its military have assuredly failed judged by the standards of military ethics. The jus ad bellum requirements of just cause, right intention, and proportionality were blatantly violated as Ukraine was attacked. This is true no matter how one views the rights of the Russian-speaking population of parts of Ukraine, or the willingness of NATO and the EU to consider Ukrainian membership in their organizations in spite of Russian objections. The threshold for engaging military force must be placed considerably higher and was never even approached as Ukraine and the West were essentially attempting to defend the independence of a sovereign state and forestall future conflict. The biggest moral shocks, however, even considering the lowest of expectations, have been seen on the battlefield and according to the rules of jus in bello. Targeted killings of civilians, wanton destruction of infrastructure, rape, plundering, and torture are all reliably reported to an extent that simply cannot be ignored. Soldiers without proper training are sent into battle. Little internal discipline can be discerned. This is a crime not only against those being cruelly attacked, but also against the Russian soldiers who are sent into battle without the preparation and professional education they – and all of us – should legitimately expect. President Vladimir Putin always recites litanies of grievances against the West in order to legitimize these policies. But even if there should be truth to some of his historical accusations, two wrongs never make a right. As academics we often observe events through the lens of the spectator, neutrally analyzing what is transpiring, and placing it into theoretical categories. But as engaged participants in the debate about military ethics we cannot be merely spectators, we are always participants. The Norwegian philosopher Hans Skjervheim, in a classic essay from 1957, wrote wisely about the difference between being “Participant and Observer” (“Deltakar og tilskodar”). Skjervheim poignantly challenges our tendency to see the academic’s stance as distanced and cold. By all means, we ought always to be balanced and not let our political or other preferences unduly influence our academic research. And we should always listen to all sides of every story. But we must never close our eyes to cynical attacks on human dignity. And this brings us back to the bottom line of military ethics: Armed force should never be used except as a necess
我们应该称之为故意和几乎完全忽视军事道德的行为是什么?也许“军事不道德”一词抓住了我们所追求的,它不仅意味着理论上的海滩,而且意味着对军事实践基本规则的令人震惊的实际忽视。随着这篇社论的撰写,乌克兰的冲突日益棘手和严重。当这个问题到达我们的读者手中时,情况可能已经改变了。然而,无论进一步发展,俄罗斯国家及其军队肯定没有按照军事道德标准来评判。正当理由、正当意图和相称性的战争法要求在乌克兰受到攻击时遭到公然违反。无论人们如何看待乌克兰部分地区讲俄语人口的权利,或者北约和欧盟不顾俄罗斯的反对,考虑乌克兰加入其组织的意愿,都是如此。必须大大提高动用军事力量的门槛,甚至从未接近过,因为乌克兰和西方基本上都在试图捍卫主权国家的独立,并阻止未来的冲突。然而,即使考虑到最低的期望,最大的道德冲击也发生在战场上,并根据贝洛法的规则。有针对性地杀害平民、肆意破坏基础设施、强奸、掠夺和酷刑都有可靠的报道,其程度不容忽视。没有经过适当训练的士兵被派往战场。几乎看不出内部纪律。这不仅是对那些遭到残酷袭击的人的罪行,也是对那些在没有得到他们——以及我们所有人——应有的准备和专业教育的情况下被派往战场的俄罗斯士兵的罪行。弗拉基米尔·普京总统总是对西方怨声载道,以使这些政策合法化。但是,即使他的一些历史指控应该是真实的,两个错误永远不会成为一个正确的。作为学者,我们经常通过旁观者的视角来观察事件,中立地分析正在发生的事情,并将其归入理论范畴。但是,作为军事伦理辩论的参与者,我们不能仅仅是旁观者,我们始终是参与者。挪威哲学家Hans Skjervheim在1957年的一篇经典文章中明智地写到了“参与者和观察者”之间的区别(“Deltakar og tilskodar”)。Skjervheim尖锐地挑战了我们将这位学者的立场视为疏远和冷漠的倾向。无论如何,我们应该始终保持平衡,不要让我们的政治或其他偏好过度影响我们的学术研究。我们应该倾听每一个故事的方方面面。但是,我们决不能对对人类尊严的愤世嫉俗的攻击视而不见。这让我们回到了军事道德的底线:除非作为对武装侵略的必要回应,否则永远不应该使用武力,并始终以最大的谨慎保护平民和遵守国际人道主义法。以民族主义、无尽的不满和扭曲的现实政治的名义,弗拉基米尔·普京故意无视所有

In Bello Proportionality: Philosophical Reflections on a Disturbing Empirical Study 《贝罗比例性:对一个令人不安的实证研究的哲学思考》

ABSTRACT A recent empirical study has argued that experts in the ethics or the law of war cannot reach reasonable convergence on dilemmas regarding the number of civilian casualties who may be killed as a side effect of attacks on legitimate military targets. This article explores the philosophical implications of that study. We argue that the wide disagreement between experts on what in bello proportionality means in practice casts serious doubt on their ability to provide practical real-life guidance. We then suggest viewing in bello proportionality through the prism of virtue ethics.
最近的一项实证研究认为,战争伦理学或战争法专家无法就攻击合法军事目标可能造成的平民伤亡人数问题达成合理的共识。本文探讨了该研究的哲学含义。我们认为,专家们对“在bello比例”在实践中意味着什么存在广泛分歧,这使人们对他们提供实际指导的能力产生了严重怀疑。然后,我们建议通过美德伦理的棱镜来观察bello比例性。

Dirty Hands and Clean Minds: On the Soldier’s Right to Forget 肮脏的双手和干净的头脑:论士兵的遗忘权

ABSTRACT The United States has been waging the “War on Terror” for nearly two decades. Obscured among the more obvious costs of that war is the moral injury borne by many of the soldiers who have fought and participated in it. Unlike post-traumatic stress disorder, which is rooted in fear, moral injury is rooted in shame, shame for having committed a moral transgression, a violation of the moral code. Haunted by the memory of their misdeeds, these soldiers are plagued by all manner of illness and infirmity, from anxiety and depression to substance abuse and suicide. In this article, I explore whether these soldiers have a right to forget, one that would entitle them to use pharmacological or psychological manipulation to cleanse their minds of the memory that they have dirtied their hands, and in that way relieve themselves of the anguish and torment from which they suffer.
摘要美国发动“反恐战争”已近二十年。这场战争更明显的代价之一是许多参加过战争的士兵所承受的道德伤害。与植根于恐惧的创伤后应激障碍不同,道德伤害植根于羞耻,为犯下道德错误而感到羞耻,违反道德准则。这些士兵被自己的罪行所困扰,从焦虑、抑郁到药物滥用和自杀,各种各样的疾病和虚弱都困扰着他们。在这篇文章中,我探讨了这些士兵是否有权忘记,这将使他们有权使用药物或心理操纵来清除他们弄脏双手的记忆,从而减轻他们所遭受的痛苦和折磨。

Sola dosis facit venenum: The Ethics of Soldier Optimisation, Enhancement, and Augmentation 事实的解决:士兵优化、增强和增强的伦理

ABSTRACT This article examines soldier performance optimisation, enhancement, and augmentation across the three dimensions of physical performance, cognitive performance, and socio-cultural understanding. Optimisation refers to combatants attaining their maximum biological potential. Enhancement refers to combatants achieving a level of performance beyond their biological potential through drugs, surgical procedures, or even gene editing. Augmentation refers to a blending of organic and biomechatronic body parts such as electronic or mechanical implants, prosthetics, and brain–machine interfaces. This article identifies that soldier optimisation is a necessity to protect individual combatants and to give them the ability to make legal and morally justifiable decisions in battle. While enhancement and augmentation of military personnel can lead to accelerated and more destructive warfare, it can also be argued that there is an ethical and moral responsibility to provide combatants the best opportunity for survivability, and that better functioning, less fatigued, and better informed military personnel can make better decisions in battle. There is also a moral responsibility of the state for the combatants themselves, and short-term military success must be balanced against the short- and long-term health and wellbeing of the personnel. This article concludes that it is both the intent and the degree that decide the acceptability.
摘要:本文从生理表现、认知表现和社会文化理解三个维度考察了士兵表现的优化、增强和增强。优化指的是战士达到他们最大的生物潜能。增强指的是战斗人员通过药物、外科手术甚至基因编辑达到超出其生物潜能的水平。增强指的是有机和生物机械身体部位的混合,如电子或机械植入物、假肢和脑机接口。这篇文章指出,士兵优化是必要的,可以保护单个战斗人员,使他们有能力在战斗中做出合法和道德上合理的决定。虽然军事人员的增强和增加可能导致战争加速和更具破坏性,但也可以认为,为战斗人员提供最佳生存机会是一种伦理和道德责任,并且更好的功能,更少的疲劳和更灵通的军事人员可以在战斗中做出更好的决策。国家对战斗人员本身也负有道德责任,短期的军事成功必须与人员的短期和长期健康和福利相平衡。本文的结论是,意图和程度共同决定了可接受性。

ABSTRACT The Balkan War was a conflict that provoked many parties to intervene. The war was also covered by a number of journalists, who carried out what we may call a “media intervention.” This article analyzes Welcome to Sarajevo, No Man’s Land, and The Hunting Party to demonstrate that it was the media and specifically journalists who drew the attention of the international community to the horrifying events that took place in the former Yugoslavia. Additionally, the article examines how the films brought the war to a personal level, thereby making the journalists direct participants in the chaos of conflict.
巴尔干战争是一场引发多方介入的冲突。许多记者也报道了这场战争,他们进行了我们可以称之为“媒体干预”的活动。本文分析了《欢迎来到萨拉热窝》、《无人区》和《狩猎党》,以证明是媒体,特别是记者引起了国际社会对发生在前南斯拉夫的恐怖事件的注意。此外,本文探讨了电影如何将战争带到个人层面,从而使记者直接参与冲突的混乱。

A Taste of Armageddon: A Virtue Ethics Perspective on Autonomous Weapons and Moral Injury 世界末日的滋味:自主武器与道德伤害的美德伦理视角

ABSTRACT Autonomous weapon systems (AWS) could in principle release military personnel from the onus of killing during combat missions, reducing the related risk of suffering a moral injury and its debilitating psychological effects. Does it follow that the armed forces are obliged to replace human soldiers with machines to reduce the incidence of moral injuries? We address this question from a virtue ethics perspective that construes moral injury as a form of character deterioration, a disgrace that just societies and institutions are morally committed to preventing. The question is divided in two sub-questions: (1) can the use of AWS reduce the risk of moral injury and is such a solution more effective than similar ones? (2) Is the use of AWS an ethically desirable solution to prevent moral injury or does it carry unethical implications that make it ultimately unsuitable? We tackle these questions comparing the opposite risks of character deterioration represented by moral injury and moral deskilling, discussing how the proposed solution evokes problematic trade-offs for the cultivation of military virtue.
自主武器系统(AWS)原则上可以免除军事人员在作战任务中杀人的责任,减少遭受道德伤害的相关风险及其使人衰弱的心理影响。这是否意味着武装部队有义务用机器取代人类士兵,以减少道德伤害的发生?我们从道德伦理的角度来解决这个问题,将道德伤害解释为一种人格退化的形式,一种公正社会和制度在道德上承诺防止的耻辱。这个问题分为两个子问题:(1)使用AWS是否可以降低道德伤害的风险,这样的解决方案是否比类似的解决方案更有效?(2)使用AWS是一种道德上可取的解决方案,以防止道德伤害,或者它是否带有不道德的含义,使其最终不适合?我们解决这些问题,比较了道德伤害和道德技能丧失所代表的性格退化的相反风险,讨论了所提出的解决方案如何唤起对军事美德培养的有问题的权衡。

A Clarion Call: Tūt! Clarion呼叫:给!

Do just war principles allow resort to war, or require it? For those who feel the force of the question, the ongoing war in Ukraine has provided an urgent case study. A video shot in late February 2022 gave the world a quick lesson in the Ukrainian language, with special emphasis on the word tūt, “here.” President Volodymyr Zelensky used the monosyllable to punctuate a roll call of Ukrainians present for duty in the face of foreign intimidation and invasion. First, he mentioned four of his administration’s top officials and then referred briefly to himself before reaching the crescendo appropriate to a proud democracy.
仅仅是战争原则允许诉诸战争,还是要求诉诸战争?对于那些感受到这个问题的力量的人来说,正在进行的乌克兰战争提供了一个紧迫的案例研究。2022年2月底拍摄的一段视频给世界上了一堂乌克兰语的快速课,特别强调了“在这里”这个词。总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基用这个单音节来打断乌克兰人在面对外国恐吓和入侵时的点名。首先,他提到了他的政府的四位高级官员,然后简短地提到了自己,然后达到了一个自豪的民主国家的高潮。
