But behind the official war, there were equally spectacular secret operations. During the conflict, the secret services of the various belligerents demonstrated ingenuity, cunning and sometimes recklessness in order to overthrow the enemy. The figure of the spy is completely fantasized in pop culture, with James Bond, a character from a novel and then a movie, or Alan Turing, whose life was adapted into a biopic in 2014. At the microphone of Storiavoce, Rémi Kauffer shows that reality has nothing to envy fiction. Through extraordinary individual trajectories or through the great History, the historian reveals all the complexity of this underground war. The guest: Historian, journalist and teacher, Rémi Kauffer is a specialist in secret services. Author of around thirty books on the subject, such as The World History of Secret Services (Perrin, 2017, 1024 p., €14.90), or more recently The Cambridge Spies. Five Soviet Moles at the Heart of Her Majesty's Secret Services (Perrin, 2022, 384 p., €22). At the microphone of Storiavoce, he comes to talk to us about his latest book: The World War of Secret Services (Perrin, 2024, 496 p., €25). *** Facebook: / histoireetcivilisationsmag Instagram: / histoireetcivilisations Twitter: / storiavoce
