Explorations in Ethics and International Relations Essays in Honour of Sydney Bailey
This book examines the interaction between the realms of ethics and international relations. The essays discuss such issues as the responsibilities of defence scientists; theological reflections on compromise; the ethics of risk-taking; the international legal protection of human rights and the collaboration of non-governmental organisations in giving individuals greater influence through international institutions. Sydney D. Bailey made a distinguished contribution over many years in bringing ethical concerns to bear on international affairs. These essays, exploring some of the many areas in which he achieved recognition as a writer and policy adviser, were offered in his honour at 65 by his friends and colleagues.
