Abstract


Among European nations at the beginning of the 1890s, there was the potential for progress without conflict. The greatest danger would be the territorial growth of one of the great powers, which would arouse suspicion and resentment in the others and might provoke catastrophe. This made it necessary to be cautious, and disconcerted those who expected greater international commitment from Spain. The western Mediterranean was a frontier zone for Trance, on the one hand, and Italy and Britain on the other. Spain sided with the latter two, because it benefited from what Salisbury called Self Denial. In this context, the Spanish-Italian agreement of 1887 was negotiated.
