Instructor: Logan Isaac T/Th, 3:05-4:20pm ~ Fulfills CZ, CCI, & EI What are the virtues embodied by military training and service, or are there any? How do the images and language of militarism and sacrifice shape our political discourse? What democratic traditions and philosophies have influenced public opinion and policy about military personnel in America? The Virtues of War considers these questions and related issues by examining inequalities within the civilian/military gap and the extent to which it has affected the perception, treatment, and veneration or vilification of combatants themselves.
