| Abstract | The article tries to show how the Portuguese built their hegemony in the slave smuggling business to the Rio de la Plata during the first half of the 18th century. In the decade of 1730 a new conjuncture begins, marked by changes in the political context and the new Anglo-Spanish war that interrupted the operations of the South Sea Company on the River Plate. This paved the way for the predominance of the Portuguese merchants, with Luso-Brazilian traffickers gradually taking over the slave trade by establishing the necessary Atlantic connections to form a network of agents involved in the illicit trade of captives. Trans-imperial smuggling of slaves connected the Luso-Brazilian traffickers operating in the Colonia do Sacramento to the two main slave ports of Portuguese America (Rio de Janeiro and Salvador). |
