WHY WAR? starts from the question posed in the letter Why War?, exchanged between Freud and Einstein in 1932: why does war persist, even in the face of all the rationality we have supposedly achieved? The images gathered here do not aim to illustrate the history of conflicts, but to reveal their permanence — as if war, rather than an event, were a structure that reconfigures itself with each generation. According to recent studies by the Peace Research Institute Oslo, 2024 saw the highest number of simultaneous armed conflicts since the end of the Second World War — more than sixty active wars in thirty-six countries. Faced with this repetition, the images speak less of borders and more of a human condition that insists on not ceasing. This zine is, therefore, an archive of the continuity of violence — and an attempt to ask again, with Freud: why?
