Primerjava dubrovniške zgodnjenovoveške diplomacije v času miru in v času osmansko-beneških vojn (pozno 17. in zgodnje 18. stoletje)

Peček, Luka (avtor), Zwitter, Žiga (mentor)

V svojem diplomskem delu sem analiziral diplomatske odnose Dubrovniške republike z Beneško republiko, Osmanskim imperijem in izbranimi drugimi državami konec 17. in na začetku 18. stoletja. Dubrovniška republika ni bila nikoli neposredno in formalno v vojnih spopadih, kljub temu pa je bila v tem obdobju nenehno v diplomatskih »spopadih«. V diplomskem delu sem predstavil trgovanje, finance, zakonodajo, diplomatska in konzularna predstavništva ter vojsko Dubrovniške republike, kar je vse bistveno vplivalo na njihovo diplomatsko delovanje. Na podlagi petih obdobij vojne med Beneško republiko in Osmanskim imperijem ter mirnimi obdobji med Benetkami in Osmani sem predstavil in razložil diplomatska dogajanja Dubrovniške republike ter primerjal diplomacijo v vojni in miru med omenjenimi državami. Predstavil sem razlike in skupne značilnosti. Pri tem sem ugotovil, da je Dubrovnik imel zelo podobno diplomatsko strategijo tako v času vojne kot v obdobju miru. Dubrovničani so uporabljali strategije usmiljenja in po drugi strani ostrega pristopa, obveščanja, zbiranja informacij, podkupovanja, plačevanja za zaščito; tako so si zagotavljali varnost in blaginjo. Vsekakor so si s takim diplomatskim pristopom hoteli zagotoviti svobodo in suverenost, saj drugim državam vojaško niso bili kos. Njihova glavna značilnost je bila, da so vedno sklepali dogovore z različnimi državami, ki so se takrat vojskovale med seboj, in vedno stavili na stran potencialnega zmagovalca.

Izvleček

In my bachelor thesis, I centred my research on diplomatic relations between the Dubrovnik republic and the Venetian republic, The Ottoman Empire and other selected countries in late 17th and early 18th century. The Dubrovnik republic was never directly and formally involved in wars, but nevertheless they were all the time engaged in »diplomatic battles«. In my thesis, I introduced the backgrounds of trade, finance, legislation, diplomatic and consular representations and the army of the Dubrovnik republic. All that was of the utmost importance and influenced the mode of operation of the diplomatic work of the republic. On the basis of five periods of wars and peace between Venetian republic and Ottoman Empire I presented and explained diplomatic relations and happenings of the Dubrovnik republic and compared diplomacy in war and peace between the aforementioned countries. I focused on the differences and common features in Dubrovnik diplomacy. I found out that the Dubrovnik republic used more or less the same diplomatic strategies in peace and war periods. It used the strategies of empathy but on the other hand it was brutally sharp in its diplomatic approach. Its diplomatic representatives were also actively involved in distribution of political information, they were collecting informations, distributing bribes and paying for political protection to ensure their safety and well being of the Dubrovnik population. For any cost, they wanted to ensure their freedom and sovereignty with diplomatic relations. They were no match for other countries in military power. Their most important feature was that they made pacts with different countries waging wars. Dubrovnik always chose the potential winner.
