A recent seminar in London drew together Christian just-war theorists
from the United States and Britain to discuss the international scene
in the light of Christian principles. It worked well because the
participants shared a common intellectual framework and the view that,
whatever moral judgments may be made about particular wars, the
analysis provided by traditional just-war thinking was an indispensable
intellectual tool.
Nevertheless, there were strong differences of opinion between the
dominant US perspective and the dominant European one, nowhere more
marked than in attitudes towards the United Nations.
