Abstract
Using the example of the Anglo-Spanish War (1585–1604), this book shows how military force was legitimized in the early modern period. Both sides justified their military campaigns as defensive interventions for the benefit of the opponent’s subjects. This volume sheds light on central norms of European political culture and power relations, making an important contribution to our understanding of international politics in the confessional age.
