Abstract

Drones, Deep Morality and the Conventions of War

This paper addresses the moral justification of the use of drones (military unmanned aerial vehicles) in armed conflicts, both from the point of view of the deep morality of war and of morally sound conventions of war. From the perspective of deep morality, I argue that no general verdict about the moral permission or prohibition of drones is possible. From the perspective of the legal conventions of armed conflicts, I defend that the most reasonable position is a strongly regulated permission, rather than a blanket prohibition.
