商品描述
"By foregrounding the adaptability of the Iberian and Dutch Empires, this volume convincingly challenges the existing scholarship on early modern empires, still largely oriented towards the seemingly inevitable dominance of the English/British empire. It demonstrates that the Iberian and Dutch empires endured into the second half of the seventeenth century by reinventing themselves through commercial and diplomatic cooperation after a period of confrontation and competition."
--Cátia Antunes, Professor, History of Global Economic Networks, University of Leiden, the Netherlands
"Offering a series of case studies that bring together the histories of Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands, this volume enriches the history of the long seventeenth century. With its focus on political, diplomatic, and colonial histories, it challenges the traditional narrative of British and French rise in the second half of the seventeenth century--and their putative displacement of the Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch from the global stage--arguing that rumors of Iberian and Dutch decline have been greatly exaggerated."
--Benjamin Schmidt, Jon Bridgman Professor of History, University of Washington, USA
This book explores the entanglements among Spain, Portugal, and the Dutch Republic during the seventeenth century from a global perspective. It offers a compelling analysis of how Ibero-Dutch relations shifted from violence and conflict--during the Iberian Union (1580-1640) and the Dutch quest for independence (1579-1648)--into collaboration and coexistence in the century's second half. The encounters between the Iberians and the Dutch in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Mediterranean regions highlight their centrality in geopolitical shifts around the globe. Challenging the paradigm of decline, the contributions gathered here demonstrate that instead, each polity embraced strategic trade-offs and reshaped imperial pursuits that ultimately allowed them to thrive as empires during the entire seventeenth century.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
「透過突顯伊比利亞和荷蘭帝國的適應性，本書有力地挑戰了現有的早期現代帝國研究，這些研究仍然在很大程度上偏向於英國/英帝國似乎不可避免的主導地位。它展示了伊比利亞和荷蘭帝國如何在十七世紀下半葉通過商業和外交合作重新塑造自己，從而持續存在於歷史舞台上，這一切發生在一段對抗和競爭的時期之後。」
-- **Cátia Antunes**，荷蘭萊頓大學全球經濟網絡歷史教授
「本書提供了一系列案例研究，將西班牙、葡萄牙和荷蘭的歷史結合在一起，豐富了長達十七世紀的歷史。它專注於政治、外交和殖民歷史，挑戰了傳統的敘述，即十七世紀下半葉英國和法國的崛起，以及它們所謂的將西班牙、葡萄牙和荷蘭從全球舞台上取代的情況，並主張有關伊比利亞和荷蘭衰退的傳聞被大大誇大。」
-- **Benjamin Schmidt**，美國華盛頓大學歷史學喬恩·布里奇曼教授
本書從全球視角探討了十七世紀西班牙、葡萄牙和荷蘭共和國之間的糾葛。它提供了一個引人注目的分析，說明了伊比利亞-荷蘭關係如何從暴力和衝突（在伊比利亞聯盟（1580-1640）和荷蘭獨立追求（1579-1648）期間）轉變為合作與共存，這一轉變發生在世紀的下半葉。伊比利亞人和荷蘭人在太平洋、大西洋和地中海地區的接觸突顯了他們在全球地緣政治變遷中的中心地位。本書挑戰了衰退的範式，所收錄的貢獻顯示，實際上每個政治體都接受了戰略上的取捨，並重新塑造了帝國追求，最終使它們在整個十七世紀中繁榮發展。
