Pacifism as War Abolitionism provides an account of the war system that draws on contemporary sociology, history, and political philosophy. The core of its critique of that system is that war begets war, and hence war will not be ended-or even constrained-by finding more principled ways to fight war, as many imagine.

It is the principal message of this book.
