The complexity, the contradictions
and the roles of the conflicts
in historical episodes and dynamics

Five seminars with historians, university lecturers and journalists on the occasion of the exhibition Architecture in Uniform. Designing and Building for the Second World War, exploring the facts, places and personalities at the centre of the two world wars, helping us to understand the historical and cultural context of war.

with Stefano Carta, Attilio Giordano, Luigi Zoja

The two psychoanalysts Luigi Zoja and Stefano Carta, together with Attilio Giordano, editor of Il Venerdì di Repubblica, tackle the issue of war alongside that of the psyche and paranoia.

In his book Paranoia. La follia che fa la storia Zoja writes: “Paranoia is the only mental ailment that directly and profoundly influences history. One paranoid subject may infect the masses.”
