Product Description
German description: Drei Tage nach dem Uberfall Russlands auf die Ukraine hat Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz in einer Regierungserklarung von einer Zeitenwende in der Geschichte unseres Kontinents gesprochen. Es gehe um die Frage, ob Macht das Recht brechen durfe. Sofern das Verhaltnis von Macht und Recht zu den zentralen Problemstellungen der Friedensethik gehort, markiert das Stichwort Zeitenwende auch fur diesen Bereich der angewandten Ethik eine Zasur: In Kriegszeiten steht die Friedensethik - namentlich die christliche - unter Realismus-Druck. Der theologische und kirchliche Mainstream des deutschen Protestantismus hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten vorrangig auf Kriegspravention gesetzt und die Frage ausgeblendet, wie gehandelt werden kann, wenn Pravention scheitert. Die drei Autoren dieses Bandes wollen auf den verstarkten Realismus-Druck reagieren, indem sie die friedensethischen Entwurfe Martin Luthers und Immanuel Kants vorstellen sowie massgebliche friedensethische Positionen des deutschen Protestantismus einer kritischen Revision unterziehen. English summary: Three days after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz spoke in a government statement of a "turning point in the history of our continent". The question is whether it is acceptable that "power breaks the law". Insofar as the relationship between power and law is one of the central problems of peace ethics, the keyword "turning point" also marks a caesura for this area of applied ethics: In times of war, peace ethics - namely, Christian peace ethics - is under the pressure of realism. In recent decades, the theological and ecclesiastical mainstream of German Protestantism has focused primarily on war prevention, disregarding the question of what one can do when prevention fails. The three authors of this volume want to respond to the increased pressure of realism by presenting the peace-ethical drafts of Martin Luther and Immanuel Kant and by subjecting leading peace-ethical positions of German Protestantism to a critical revision.
