LOCATION:South Bend\, United States
DESCRIPTION:<p><br>A focus on character and virtues in the military is well established\, both in terms of philosophy and practice.&nbsp\; Given the developments and technologies emergent since the 1990's and 9/11 (humanitarian interventions\, counter-terrorism\, counter-insurgency\, increased use of Non-Lethal Weapons\, and remote warfare)\, it is an appropriate time to reassess this approach to ethics and think about future directions for ethics and ethics education in the military.</p>\n<p>Questions to consider might include:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>To what extent have some or all of the developments listed above altered the landscape of war in ways that require rethinking approaches to the ethics of character in the military?</li>\n<li>What are the appropriate character traits and virtues required in war?&nbsp\; Does this change as the nature of war changes? (Does the nature of war change with technological and political changes?)</li>\n<li>What are ways which PME or other ethical education aspects in the military need to change or be updated to deal with new contexts?</li>\n</ul>\n\n\n<p>Submissions should be sent to&nbsp\;richard.schoonhoven@usma.edu</a>&nbsp\;no later than 30 June\, 2013.&nbsp\; Abstracts are acceptable\, although full papers are preferred\; but please limit submissions to no more than 7\,000 words.&nbsp\; As always\, we accept high quality submissions in any area of military ethics.</p>\n<p>For more information on ISME\, please visit the web site at:</p>
