书目名称 | Ethics and Autonomous Weapons | 编辑 | Alex Leveringhaus | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | . This book is amongst the first academic treatments of the emerging debate on autonomous weapons. Autonomous weapons are capable, once programmed, of searching for and engaging a target without direct intervention by a human operator. Critics of these weapons claim that ‘taking the human out-of-the-loop’ represents a further step towards the de-humanisation of warfare, while advocates of this type of technology contend that the power of machine autonomy can potentially be harnessed in order to prevent war crimes. This book provides a thorough and critical assessment of these two positions. Written by a political philosopher at the forefront of the autonomous weapons debate, the book clearly assesses the ethical and legal ramifications of autonomous weapons, and presents a novel ethical argument against fully autonomous weapons.. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Miltary technology; Killer robots; Autonomous weapons; Drones; Military Ethics; Just War Theory; Robots; Wa | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-52361-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-52361-7 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
