The Doctrine of ‘Just War’

Prof. Johan Galtung – TRANSCEND Media Service, 28 Aug 2023

Let it be clear that the present author is against war, there being no “but”. War as an institution is an abomination, like slavery and colonialism.

A doctrine of just war is designed to offer a legitimization by seeing the evil of war as something that can be outweighed by possible positive outcomes.

Pakistan: How Did Neo-Colonial Leaders Stab the Nation?

Mahboob A. Khawaja, Ph.D. – TRANSCEND Media Service, 21 Aug 2023

Imran Khan wanted to opt for political changes in Pakistan’s external relations and reshape its reliance on the US towards a more balanced relationship with Russia, China and other Middle Eastern nations.
