Pierre-Etienne Bourneuf (Geneva Graduate Institute) and Olga Hidalgo-Weber (University of Geneva) are leading scholars of diplomatic history and international institutions.
They examine how Geneva’s identity as the ‘Capital of Peace’ was constructed by institutions from the Red Cross to the League of Nations, and they investigate contemporary challenges—erosion of liberal democracy, shifting negotiation venues, and doubts about effectiveness of multilateral organisations—asking how the city can rethink its diplomatic role.
