Strategic debates
Presentation
Organised on a monthly basis, the strategic debates aim to discuss a recently published work in the field of defence and security. In the presence of the author, they provide an opportunity to present the main contributions of his or her work and to enrich the discussion with a view to current international events.
Covering a wide range of issues, the strategic debates are led by speakers from a variety of backgrounds - military, experts, academics, journalists, etc. - who help to bring together different viewpoints on developments in defence and security issues.
