| Abstract | Vojne organizacije danas se nalaze pred velikim izazovima, a vojnik pred velikim moralnim dilemama. Vojnu etiku svaki pripadnik oružanih snaga treba steći i razvijati tijekom svoje karijere. Vojnik mora biti obuĉen razlikovati dobro i zlo, ispravno od neispravnog, moralno od nemoralnog, etiĉno od neetiĉnog. Po Aristotelu vojnika bi mogli definirati kao prosjeĉnog ĉovjeka kojemu je na umu hrabrost valjana ratnika, požrtvovanje ĉestita rodoljuba, trijeznost smotrena građanina. Po Platonu vojnici su ĉuvari države koje odlikuje hrabrost. Vojna etika analizira, prosuđuje i u konaĉnici opravdava vojne akcije s moralnog gledišta. Definira individualne, kolektivne i profesionalne vrijednosti koje svaki vojnik, a time i ĉitava vojna organizacija, treba posjedovati kako bi on bio ĉastan i odan, požrtvovan i pošten. Vojnik osjeća dužnost ispuniti i izvršiti svoju obvezu, svoj poziv i svoju odgovornost. On prije svega mora biti human, poštivati razliĉitosti i biti u stanju naći ravnotežu između zapovijedi i moralnosti. |
| Abstract (english) | Military organizations today face great challenges, and the soldier faces great moral dilemmas. Every member of the armed forces should acquire and develop military ethics during their career. A soldier must be trained to tell the difference between good and evil, right and wrong, moral and immoral, ethical and unethical. According to Aristotle, a soldier could be defined as an average man who has in mind the courage of a valiant warrior, the sacrifice of a virtuous patriot, the sobriety of a prudent citizen. According to Plato, soldiers are the guardians of a state characterized by courage. Military ethics analyzes, judges, and ultimately justifies military actions from a moral point of view. It defines the individual, collective and professional values that every soldier, and the entire military organization, should possess in order for him to be honorable and loyal, self-sacrificing and honest. A soldier feels a duty to fulfill and fulfill his obligation, his vocation, and his responsibility. Above all, he must be human, respect differences and be able to find a balance between commandment and morality. |
