ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on the implications of the right intention requirement for the emotional states elicited in war. It also focuses on a claim about war and emotion that has affirmed by a wide swathe of Just War Tradition (JWT) advocates, and that participation in war ought to elicit a range of negative emotions even in a just soldier. The chapter discusses the different claim that a just soldier's participation in war ought to elicit various positive emotions, and articulates a unified account of war and emotion according to which a just soldier ought to undergo both negative and positive emotions of the appropriate sort. It argues that a just soldier is under no moral obligation to undergo particular positive or negative emotions over his participation in war. The chapter traces the normative significance of the claim that proper emotional functioning requires soldiers to undergo both joy and sorrow over their participation in war.
