Publisher's Synopsis
The book offers a logical analysis of the United Nations' search for a generally acceptable definition of aggression. The book contends that a definition of a term or a concept is a preliminary statement subject to further assessments by judging the definition true or false, and by reasoning where the definition and the judgment are examined by inductive and deductive reasonsing. Until this is done, the Security Council cannot use the definition as it stands now and make binding decisions under Article 39 of the Charter with respect to the use of force in international politics.
