“The man who many considered the peace candidate in the last election was transformed into a war president,” writes bestselling author and Yale Professor of Law Stephen Carter. The Violence of Peace is a snapshot of the early unfolding moral dilemmas of a President who, through his use of drones and other controversial tools of warfare, is leaving America with a blood stained legacy which will impact on the security of the nation for decades to come. The world is now a far less safe place in 2016 than it was in 2008. First released in 2011, The Violence of Peace is a book about “just war” theory, a concept first advanced in the earliest years of Christianity and now playing out as a 21st Century nightmare.
