SUMMARY:Has Making Wars More 'Humane' Helped Make Them Endless?
DESCRIPTION:Have efforts to make war more ethical — to ban torture and li
 mit civilian casualties — only shored up the military enterprise and mad
 e it sturdier? That is the controversial argument Professor Samuel Moyn ma
 kes in his new book Humane. Moyn\, a professor at Yale University and Non-
 Resident Fellow at the Quincy Institute\, looks back at a century and a ha
 lf of passionate arguments about the ethics of using force. Humane is the 
 story of how America went off to fight and never came back\, and how armed
  combat was transformed from an imperfect tool for resolving disputes into
  an integral component of the modern condition. As American wars have beco
 me more humane\, they have also become endless\, he argues.  To discuss hi
 s thesis\, Moyn will be joined by Princeton Professor Gary Bass\, author o
 f The Blood Telegram: Nixon\, Kissinger\, and a Forgotten Genocide and Fre
 edom's Battle: The Origins of Humanitarian Intervention. Their conversatio
 n will be moderated by the Quincy Institute's Kelley Beaucar Vlahos.  The 
 discussion will take place on Monday\, October 4\, at 10 am ET.
