Abstract

In this article is analyzed briefly an anonymous document in which are ex-posed the benefits that would carry the installation of a mission and a naval establish-ment in the Falkland Islands. Two are the topics on which the analysis of the above-mentioned project is centered. First will be considered the strong geopolitical content of it, coherent with the reforms promoted by the Crown. Secondly will be taken into ac-count the complex critical apparatus that is used as support, which makes us realize the vast informative network to which the author had access as a member of Jesus' Compa-ny.
