«'Patrick Hayden is to be congratulated for producing this excellent collection of original essays which will be an invaluable resource for anyone engaging in teaching or research in the field of international ethics.' Chris Brown, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK 'This Research Companion is an outstanding text. It moves well beyond the standard casuistic approaches that deal with specific ethical issues that arise in international relations - issues to do with human rights, humanitarian intervention, just war, national self-determination and so on. This Companion provides a series of articles that grapple with ethical issues at a more profound level. The articles demonstrate how ethical questions arise at every level of our engagement with international affairs. They demonstrate how ethical questions are to be found in the very way in which we understand ourselves as participants in world affairs. The arguments for and against rival understandings of sovereignty, liberty, war and peace, the rights of women, children, nations, the role of democracy in world affairs, and many others, are set out with remarkable clarity. Best of all, throughout the work the ethical issues that arise from the ways in which we do ethical theory are made abundantly clear. This is a text that I shall be using extensively and I shall be recommending that my students do the same.'
