Battle of Ideas Festival: 18-19 October, Barbican

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS DEBATES

Dear all,

The tenth annual Battle of Ideas festival is drawing ever closer, and I thought you might be interested in hearing about the INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS debates that will be held throughout the course of the festival weekend.

The Battle of Ideas festival, organised by The Institute of Ideas, provides a forum for free thinking, debate and discussion on a host of topics. It will take place on the weekend of 18 and 19 October at the Barbican in London, one of the world’s leading art centres.

Over 2,000 delegates will attend more than 80 sessions during the weekend. And hundreds of insightful speakers from across the globe, representing a wide range of disciplines and viewpoints, will tackle some of the most pressing issues of our time.
