摘要
本篇論文將以新的歷史文獻中對於初期近代歐洲國家形成的觀點，重新評估1450年至1820年間在大西洋彼岸興起的諸帝國的政體本質。縱觀西班牙、英國、葡萄牙、法國和荷蘭諸帝國的經驗，傳統以帝國權威爲中心的壓迫統治模式，並不適用於近代歐洲初期各海外殖民帝國。相反地，新的文獻證實這些帝國威權的興起是歐洲權力中心在受制於有限的財力與權力資源下，及殖民的歐洲人與其海外子孫所建立的新權力舞台協議的結果。

Abstract
This paper uses new literature on European state formation as a point of departure to re-examine the nature of the transatlantic political entities that came into existence between 1450 and 1820. Even though the agglomerated national empires of Spain, England, Portugal, France and Holland had at their centre a powerful imperial state with authoritative, or sovereign central governing institutions, this did not apply to their early modern overseas colonies. On the contrary, the new literature demonstrates that these rising imperial authorities were the result of limited financial resources and the limited power of the European central authority, and this resulted in the establishment of new negotiated systems of authority between the colonizing Europeans and their overseas dependants.
