Zdravko Šundrica
Sažetak
The author presents the general circumstances that led to the Austro-Turkish War (1737-1739), and analyzes the organization and activities of the Ragusan intelligence service, which was of essential value for the security and well-being of the Republic. The Dubrovnik’s intelligence was established and developed as an integral part of diplomatic service and procedures, under the direct supervision of the Senate. Dubrovnik recruited its secret agents from its own subjects employed in the foreign service, as well as from the numerous merchants and seamen who acted as intelligence sources in times of war and peace.
