Abstract

This work deals with the contribution of the Braudel’s work The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the age of Philip II to understanding and interpretation of the basic characteristics of the Adriatic geopolitics through history. The focus is on the historical - geographical and geostrategical valorization of the historical role of crucial vantage points in control and protection of main longitudinal and transversal Adriatic maritime corridors as well as on the geostrategical analysis of relations of the Adriatic with the rest of the Mediterranean
and particularly with its closer and more distant continental
hinterlands.
