| Summary: | The concept of just war and crusade remain through time as elements of casus belli legitimating, since the early manifestations in high Middle Ages, the pinnacle in the Crusades for regaining the Holy Land, and its ratification in contemporary era. The typical characteristic is the adversary demonization as immensurable evil and total enemy, destroying the ius belli and the iustus hostis concepts. The essay approaches the examples of russian-german war 1941-45, the anglo-american strategic bombing in WW.II, and the confrontations between the West and the Islamic world. |
