The Diplomacy of Small States in Early Modern South-eastern Europe
This project analyzes the foreign policy strategies of small states in early modern South-eastern Europe to understand their survival tactics amid competing empires and cultural influences.
Projectdetails
Introduction
This project aims at producing a synoptic analysis of the foreign policy of small states in early modern South-eastern Europe. For centuries, the rulers of the Crimea, Moldavia and Wallachia, Ragusa, Transylvania, and Cossack Ukraine had to cope with their difficult geo-political situation of being at the borderlands between Christian Europe and the Ottoman Empire.
Objectives
The project will be the first attempt at writing a comparative history on the following questions:
- What kind of strategies did these small states follow in order to overcome their vulnerability and survive on the frontier not only of empires but also of civilisations?
- What was the impact of being placed at cultural borderlands upon their diplomatic practices?
- How did they try to overcome the problem of having to communicate and present themselves in two radically different political languages (i.e. of their powerful Muslim and Christian neighbours)?
- How did the agents of diplomacy function in this peculiar geo-political and cultural context, and how did it shape their status, practices, and the kind of social gains available to them?
