 Online Zoom Seminar.\nAbstract\nThe crisis of the Iberian empires during t
 he Napoleonic wars marked a fundamental transition in relations between tr
 ade and empire. The effectiveness of their 'mercantilist' institutional su
 pport for long-distance trade fell short\, and from 1808-10 the Ibero-Amer
 ican actors had to rely even more on other subjects capable of guaranteein
 g some protection to their “global” commercial initiatives. These relation
 s were\, at different times\, fixed by treaties\, which re-founded the tie
 s between trade and a new type of empire\, this time informal. If the Span
 ish-American actors\, for example\, contributed to push the world towards 
 free trade by opening their ports to all friendly and neutral subjects\, t
 his nevertheless contributed to fueling rivalries over the reconfiguration
  of the American space. These rivalries were reflected in the attempts\, m
 ainly by Britain and the United States\, then also by France and other sub
 jects\, to obtain suitable formulations of such treaties to their economic
  and strategic interests\, in exchange for recognition of the new states a
 nd necessary political synergies. And this experience provided\, in genera
 l\, a model and a tool for nineteenth-century imperialism.\nPresenter:&nbs
