Each essay contributes to our understanding of the limits and scope of violence, and how we might appropriately respond to it, in the context of concrete concerns. Questions include: Is torture ever justified? How are we to understand terrorism? Should we believe the claim that torture is sometimes necessary? Is conscientious objection a tenable position?
