Revisionist just war theory is a development of just war theory that, unlike traditional just war theory, seeks to integrate jus ad bellum and jus in bello, therefore rejecting many traditional beliefs such as moral equality of combatants.[1][2] Opposing traditionalists such as Michael Walzer,[3] revisionists include Jeff McMahan, Cécile Fabre, Bradley J. Strawser, and David Rodin.[4]
