Transformations in the Culture of International Relations Around the Peace of Utrecht

Produktbeschreibung

The Peace of Utrecht (1713) was perhaps the first political treaty that had a global impact. It not only ended a European-wide conflict, but led to a cessation of hostilities on the American continent and Indian subcontinent, as well as naval warfare worldwide. The treaty also marked an important step in the development of an integrated world-wide political system. By reconsidering the preconditions, negotiations and consequences of the Peace of Utrecht - rather than focusing on previous concerns with international relations and diplomacy - this book helps embed events in a richer context of diverging networks, globalizing empires, expanding media and changing identities.
