Book Launch "For a Possible Peace. Responsibility, Justice and Reparation in the Age of Wars"

The book "Per una pace possibile. Responsabilità, giustizia e riparazione al tempo delle guerre" [For a Possible Peace. Responsibility, Justice and Reparation in the Age of Wars] (Feltrinelli, 2026)
At a time when war is once again becoming the everyday language of politics and the collective imagination, Ceretti and Cornelli offer a radical and counter-current reflection: is peace still conceivable? And under what conditions? At the heart of the book lie the concepts of responsibility, justice and reparation – tools for thinking through alternatives to the logic of conflict and punishment, even in the most difficult circumstances.
Below are a number of upcoming events at which the book will be presented:
