Forever Peace

From TheBestLinks.com

Forever Peace is a science fiction novel by Joe Haldeman. It was published in 1997 and won a Hugo Award.

Though its title is similar to The Forever War and both novels deal with soldiers in the future, Forever Peace takes place on Earth much closer to the present day. Rather than extraterrestrials, the narrator and his fellow soldiers are fighting Third World guerrillas in an endless series of economically driven wars. Rather than fighting in person, the American troops use remote-controlled robots and are thus nearly invincible. The novel explores the moral questions raised by such use of military technology, and imagines an unusual approach to ending war permanently.
