Helen Frowe's 'Defensive Killing' is in many respects an excellent book, full of arguments that are original, interesting, important, and often persuasive. In other respects, the book is deeply unsettling, as it forcefully challenges the belief that killing ordinary civilians in armed conflict is a paradigmatic moral wrong. In particular, Frowe argues that civilians who make political, material, strategic, or financial contributions to an unjust war may lose their moral protection from intentional and collateral harm. On this point, Frowe's arguments are original, interesting, and important but, thankfully, not persuasive.

保护平民免遭防御性杀戮

海伦·弗罗 (Helen Frowe) 的《防御性杀戮》在许多方面都是一本出色的书,其中充满了原创、有趣、重要且通常具有说服力的论点。在其他方面,这本书令人深感不安,因为它有力地挑战了在武装冲突中杀害普通平民是一种典型的道德错误的信念。特别是,弗罗认为,为一场不公正的战争做出政治、物质、战略或财政贡献的平民可能会失去他们免受故意和附带伤害的道德保护。在这一点上,弗罗的论点是原创的、有趣的、重要的,但幸运的是,没有说服力。
