This special issue of the journal Viaggiatori (www.viaggiatorijournal.com) seeks to examine the nature, the differences and changes of political travels in Europe (Russia included) starting from the eighteenth century, an era of transformation and intense mobility of aristocrats, scientists and beyond, until the end of the twentieth century. By globally examining facts and their occurrence imposed by time and distance, the aim is to frame the political, national and international travel as a central historical point not only in the dissemination of political ideas and experiences, but also for an improved understanding of foreign schemes including the origin of national and international networks.
