Both states emerged victorious from the Napoleonic wars and were united by the alliance, but their respective strength was totally different. While Great Britain enhanced its status as a sea power, strong enough to affect the political situation in Europe, Spain sank to the rank of a secondary state. Britain, protecting clearly defined interests, carried out long-term and rational policy. Spain’s policy was inconsistent and it could not be treated as a reliable ally in spite of its considerable economic resources and strategic importance. The book analyses a long and complex process of overcoming the traditional hostility between the two countries and outlines the international context as well as the internal conditions of that political evolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: Political relations between Spain and Great Britain in the years 1808-1833 – Hispanic America in Spanish and British relations – British mediation in the Spanish colonies – The treaty of 1817 – The Problem of slave trade abolition – Great Britain and the intervention of the Holy Alliance.","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51044227023191,"sku":"9783631627143","price":72.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/allies-or-enemies-political-relations-between-spain-and-great-britain-during-the-reign-of-ferdinand-vii-1808-1833-9783631627143","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
