"Just Wars, Holy Wars, and Jihads explores the development of ideas of morally justified
or legitimate war in Western and Islamic civilizations. Historically, these ideas
have been grouped under three labels: just war, holy war, and jihad. A large body
of literature exists exploring the development of just war and holy war concepts in
the West and of jihad in Islam. Yet, to date, no book has investigated in depth the
historical interaction between Western notions of just or holy war and Muslim definitions
of jihad. This book is a major contribution to the comparative study of the ethics
of war and peace in the West and Islam. Its twenty chapters explore two broad questions:
1. What historical evidence exists that Christian and Jewish writers on just war and
holy war and Muslim writers on jihad knew of the other tradition? ; 2. What is the
evidence in treatises, chronicles, speeches, ballads, and other historical records,
or in practice, that either tradition influenced the other?. The book surveys the
period from the rise of Islam in the early seventh century to the present day. Part
One surveys the impact of the early Islamic conquests upon Byzantine, Syriac, and
Muslim thinking on justified war. Part Two probes developments during the Crusades.
Part Three focuses on the early modern period in Europe and the Ottoman Empire, followed
by analysis of the era of European imperialism in Part Four. Part Five brings the
discussion into the present period, with chapters analyzing the impact of international
law and terrorism on conceptions of just war and jihad."--Publisher's website
