World War II: Why Was This War Different?
Author(s)Walzer, Michael
AbstractWalzer analyzes how the presence of an “evil objectified” force in the world caused countries to join the fight against Nazism in World War II. He looks at how this presence created a moral judgment on Britain’s part to bomb and terrorize Germany’s civilian population in the name of destroying evil.
