Klaus Gallo examines the early nineteenth century relationship
between Great Britain and the Rio de la Plata, a period that
represents a crucial point in the transformation of this area of
South America into the independent state of Argentina. He
highlights the initial ambiguities of British aims, with the
government entertaining both conquest and military aid, Gallo shows
how the relationship survived this confusion and became much
stronger once the Spanish colony gained independence in 1810. He
unravels the tangled foreign policy implications for Britain,
particularly in terms of its alliance with Spain, that ultimately
led to its recognition of Argentina as a sovereign state.
