Leadership, ethics, and the centrality of character / Peter Olsthoorn -- Armouring against atrocity: developing ethical strength in small military units / Tom McDermott and Stephen Hart -- Ethical leadership in the military: the gap between theory and -- Practice in ethics education / Miriam C. de Graaff, Peter W. de Vries, Walter J. van Bijlevelt and Ellen Giebels -- ABCA coalition operations in Afghanistan, Iraq and beyond: two decades of military ethics challenges and leadership responses / David Whetham -- Military leaders, fragmentation, and the virtue of integrity / Nathan L. Cartagena and Michael D. Beaty -- Military integrity: moral or ethical? / Patrick Mileham -- Soldiers' autonomy and military authority / Mihaly Boda -- The concept of innere Fuhrung: dimensions of its ethics / Angelika Dorfler-Dierken -- Intervening as a moral duty: Michael Walzer versus a multilateralism approach / Arseniy Kumankov -- When international dialogue about military ethics confronts diverse cultural and political practices: 'guilt and confession' as a case in point / George R. Wilkes.
"Most books and articles still treat leadership and ethics as related though separate phenomena. This edited volume is an exception to that rule, and explicitly treats leadership and ethics as a single domain. This holds especially true for the military, as it is one of the few organizations that can legitimately use violence. Military leaders have to deal with personnel who have either used or experienced violence. This intertwinement of leadership and violence separates military leadership from leadership in other professions. Even in a time that leadership is increasingly questioned, it is still good leadership that keeps soldiers from crossing the thin line between legitimate force and excessive violence."--Provided by publisher.
