His observations dealt with free trade in the East Indies, the Dutch Republic's military conflict with the Portuguese and Spanish in Asia, and the legal and moral grounds for attacking and plundering Portuguese and Spanish mercantile shipping. This book considers the background to the treatises, their content and significance, and what Grotius actually knew about Southeast Asian politics and Portuguese institutions of trade and diplomacy when he wrote them. Grotius' work on the freedom of the sea was a cornerstone in his enduring reputation as one of the founders of modern international law. The present book provides a valuable resource for historians of Southeast Asia and for students of international relations, political theory, maritime history and public international law.History / Asia / Southeast AsiabisacshHistoryHistory / Asia / Southeast AsiaHistory.Borschberg Peter779663ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910645984903321Hugo Grotius, the Portuguese, and Free Trade in the East Indies3007926UNINA
