Contests a prevalent, excessively-negative image of the Iberian empire, counterpoising the difficult relationship between empires and globalization and opening the debate for comparisons to other imperial formations. ; Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico e Historia e Instituciones Económicas ; Junta de Andalucía (P09-HUM 5330) ; Ministerio De Economía Y Competitividad (HAR2014-53797-P)
