The agreement with the enemy

Peace is perhaps humanity's greatest achievement, but also the most fragile. Behind every treaty lie wars, compromises, strategies, and worldviews destined to change the course of history.

In Making Deals with the Enemy, Gastone Breccia, one of Italy’s foremost scholars of military history, takes the audience on a journey through thirty agreements that have shaped the fate of civilizations, from the famous treaty between Ramses II and the Hittites to the new forms of diplomacy that characterize our time.

Every peace tells a precarious balance, an interrupted conflict, a hope for stability often destined to be tested again.

Through emblematic episodes and a rigorous reading of political and military dynamics, this talk provides a key to understanding the tensions of the present, in an era marked by wars, competition among powers, and new geopolitical scenarios.

An event of extraordinary relevance to reflect on the value of diplomacy, the meaning of peace, and the lessons that history continues to offer to those called to build tomorrow's world.

Because knowing the past means better understanding the future.
