The Ethics of Insurgency explains how guerrillas who pursue national self-determination may justly utilize many unlawful practices of war as long as they target military objectives, respect the rights of noncombatants and reject terrorism.

Torture, rendition, assassination, blackmail, extortion, direct attacks on civilians, and chemical weapons are all finding their way to the battlefield despite longstanding international prohibitions. This book provides a practical guide for policy makers, military officers, students, and others who ask the tough questions that these conflicts raise.
