Abstract
(en) The purpose of this essay is to question the state-centered reading of international relations in the 19th century, and to demonstrate the importance of non-state actors and their influence within the international system. It is in this perspective that we have chosen to study the case of General Prim and the Ostend’s Committee. During the month of August 1866, the committee gathers a series of figures of the Spanish progressive and democrat parties in exile, opposed to Queen Isabella II. This essay will not deal with the peregrinations of General Prim and the Ostend Committee as such, but on the role and impact they may have had in the international system, how they were apprehended by the other actors and in particular the Belgian and Spanish Governments, but also and especially on the way in which they could influence the Belgo-Spanish diplomatic relations.
