Résumé
« Hearsay, rumores and people’s information : about foreign policy debates in Rome (2nd century B. C.) ». In the Rome of the first half of the 2nd century B. C., the interest in developments of wars was general, but the possibility of knowledge and awareness of this issue was basically restricted to the governing elite. Votes on war and peace, a constitutional prerogative of the populus, mostly reflected its embrace of the international policy carried out by a ruling class which was cohesive and, therefore, able to carefully select and handle information.
