This new volume examines the influence of trade and empire from
1689 to 1815, a crucial period for British foreign policy and
state-building.
Jeremy Black, a leading expert on British foreign policy, draws
on the wide range of archival material, as well as other sources,
in order to ask how far, and through what processes and to what
ends, foreign policy served commercial and imperial goals during
this period. The book is particularly interested in the
conceptualization of these goals in terms of international
competition, and how the contours and contents of this
conceptualization altered during this period. Trade, Empire and
British Foreign Policy, 1689-1815 also analyzes how the
relationships between trade, empire and foreign policy were
perceived abroad and how this contributed to an analysis of Britain
as a distinctive state, and with what consequences.
This book will be of much interest to students of British
imperial history, diplomatic history and international history in
general.
