Drawing on European and Ottoman archival records, from diplomatic correspondence and naval journals to songs, poems and pamphlets, Erik de Lange explores how security was used in the nineteenth century to legitimise the repression of piracy. This repression brought European imperial expansionism and colonial rule to North Africa. By highlighting the crucial role of security within international relations, this book demonstrates how European cooperation against shared threats remade the Mediterranean and unleashed a new form of collaborative imperialism.
