Bounding the debate on drones

the paradox of postmodern warfare

Samenvatting

As the author puts it, drone strikes have become the icon of the western post-modern style of warfare and they have been the subject of an ongoing debate. Paying due attention to the risk of drone warfare, moral disengagement and questionable legality included, as well as practicalities of the use of drones, Osinga proposes a balanced view. He points out tha that the current debates on drones is a manifestation of the paradox of post-modern warfare in which more precise weapons seem to provoke changes in the western attitudes towards the use of military force.
