Lethal autonomous weapon systems and the violation of human dignity.

本研究旨在了解历史上哲学辩论和军事意识形态中尊严的表现方式，以及这些历史表现如何用于围绕致命自主武器系统（LAWS）的现代伦理辩论，旨在为未来关于技术创新的伦理辩论提供推理基础。这将通过探索哲学思想中尊严的历史表征以及这些表征与现代国际人权法的比较来实现。本研究还将考察国际人道法的不断迭代，以及它们如何演变以解决第二次世界大战东线性暴力和1994年卢旺达种族灭绝的案例研究中提出的问题。最后，将分析过去和现在在技术创新伦理辩论中实施历史背景的实例，与现代军事意识形态关于技术使用的对比，目的是为当前关于LAWS的辩论创造先例，并为该领域未来的辩论和研究奠定基础。

This study aims to understand the manner in which dignity is represented in philosophical debate andmilitary ideology across history, and how these historical representations are used in modern ethicaldebates surrounding lethal autonomous weapons systems (LAWS), with the intention of providing futureethical debate on technological innovation with a basis of reasoning. This will be achieved by exploringhistorical representations of dignity in philosophical thought and how those representations comparewith modern international human rights laws. This research will also examine the successive iterations ofinternational humanitarian laws (IHL) and how they have evolved to address issues presented in casestudies of sexual violence on the Eastern Front in World War Two and in the 1994 Rwandan genocide.Finally, past and present instances of the implementation of historical context in ethical debate oftechnological innovation in contrast with modern military ideology regarding the use of technology willbe analysed with the intention of generating a precedent for current debate on LAWS and establishing afoundation for future debates and research in this field.
