Stephen Coleman — The ethics of non-lethal weapons

In this talk at TEDx­Can­berra 2011, Stephen Cole­man dis­cusses his work as an ethi­cist with mil­i­tary and police forces and his exam­i­na­tion of whether non-lethal weapons act as a valid deter­rent to lethal force, both for the law enforcer and the per­pe­tra­tor of crimes.
