Yet even as attacks on military, civilian, and commercial targets have escalated, there is not yet a clear set of ethical guidelines that apply to cyber warfare. Indeed, like terrorism, cyber warfare is commonly believed to be a war without rules. Given the prevalence cyber warfare, developing a practical moral code for this new form of conflict is more important than ever. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eEthics and Cyber Warfare, \u003c\/em\u003e internationally-respected ethicist George Lucas delves into the confounding realm of cyber conflict. Comparing \"state-sponsored hacktivism\" to the transformative impact of \"irregular warfare\" in conventional armed conflict, Lucas offers a critique of legal approaches to governance, and outlines a new approach to ethics and \"just war\" reasoning. Lucas draws upon the political philosophies of Alasdair MacIntyre, John Rawls, and J�rgen Habermas to provide a framework for understanding these newly-emerging standards for cyber conflict, and ultimately presents a professional code of ethics for a new generation of \"cyber warriors.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLucas concludes with a discussion of whether preemptive self-defense efforts - such as the massive government surveillance programs revealed by Edward Snowden - can ever be justified, addressing controversial topics such as privacy, anonymity, and public trust.
