Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the late eighteenth-century conflict in the Western Mediterranean, this book shifts the narrative from the typical military events to the internal struggles within competing ideologies. It explores how states in the region, such as Tuscany, Toulon, Algiers, Spain, and Corsica, sought autonomy or neutrality rather than merely serving as battlegrounds. By examining the adaptation of ideologies, the book highlights the active role these states played in the geopolitical landscape, offering a nuanced understanding of the era's complexities.
