    Rafe Blaufarb is Ben Weider Eminent Scholar and Director of the Institute on Napoleon and the French Revolution at Florida State University. He is the author of The French Army, 1750–1820: Careers, Talent, Merit and Bonapartists in the Borderlands: French Exiles and Refugees on the Gulf Coast, 1815–1835. He is currently working on several projects: a history of noble fiscal privilege in France (1530s–1830s), a study of the transformation of seigneurial property in Europe across the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and a book on international adventurism in the struggles for Latin American independence. An early version of this article was presented in the roundtable session “Napoleon's Atlantic,” organized by Jordana Dym and John Savage at the 2006 meeting of the American Historical Association. I thank them, as well as Jeremy Adelman, Matthew Childs, Suzanne Desan, Laurent Dubois, Claudia Mineo, and the anonymous readers for the AHR, for their encouragement and feedback. I also thank the students in the seminar “Gender, Race, and the Politics of Empire in the Atlantic World, 1700–1850” (taught by Jeanne Boydston and Suzanne Desan at the University of Wisconsin–Madison) for their helpful suggestions.

  • Descrição: Blaufarb argues that the collapse of Spanish rule in the Americas produced a revolution in Atlantic power relations by sparking international competition over the fruits of imperial implosion. He discusses a geopolitical rivalry over the fate of Spanish America. Blaufarb situates the movement for Latin American independence as part of the process of geopolitical realignment in the post-Napoleonic world.
