摘要:Between 1923 and 1928 the Transatlantic Company, the great shipping enterprise belonging to the Marquis of Comillas, established a regular service to the Pacific ports of Peru through the Panama Canal. This business venture was a complex project involving both economic and political interests, which was born amid difficulties that condemned it to failure almost from the start. The origins and evolution of this project are traced in this essay through the actions of the Spanish diplomatic and consular representatives in Lima, and of the merchants and businessmen who were members of the Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Peru.
