The paper investigates the idea of a just war in the context of the notion of justice as such. The author considers two possible treatments of the term «justice» (a legal one and a purely moral one), and comes to the conclusion that the tradition of a just war involves a legal aspect if justice as prohibition of lawlessness and abidance by rules. On the other hand the moral understanding of justice as a notion of the due actualises the tradition of perpetual peace.
