- Title
FRAMING THE ENEMY'S THEORY AS AN EQUATION: THE USE OF MILITARY DRONES AND ITS MORAL IMPLICATIONS IN MODERN WARFARE.
- Authors
Karakasis, Georgios
- Abstract
The aim of this article is to analyze both the ontological and moral consequences stemming from the use of military drones in modern warfare. More specifically, through the analysis made by the philosopher Glenn Gray, we will focus on the dangers lurking in the creation of an "abstract enemy", through his dehumanization in our vocabulary and thought; in addition, emphasis will be laid upon the moral challenges the use of military drones might generate with reference to the noncombatant civilians in modern warfare and the radical changes this use might entail for our approach towards military ethics.
