African slavery was pervasive in Spain's Atlantic empire yet remained in the margins of the imperial economy until the end of the eighteenth century when the plantation revolution in the Caribbean colonies put the slave traffic and the plantation at the center of colonial exploitation and conflict. The international group of scholars brought together in this volume explain Spain's role as a colonial pioneer in the Atlantic world and its latecomer status as a slave-trading, plantation-based empire. These contributors map the broad contours and transformations of slave-trafficking, the plantation, and antislavery in the Hispanic Atlantic while also delving into specific topics that include: the institutional and economic foundations of colonial slavery; the law and religion; the influences of the Haitian Revolution and British abolitionism; antislavery and proslavery movements in Spain; race and citizenship; and the business of the illegal slave trade. .…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Su autor nos adentra por los complejos vericuetos de la literatura, la historia, la lengua y la religión, algunas de las disciplinas intelectuales que sirvieron como vehículo para la definición de formulaciones genuinamente catalanas. . . . . . pero que, a través de literatos o pensadores como Milà i Fontanals o Jaume Balmes, tuvieron tanta influencia en la cultura española. En la medida en que aquella versión de la cultura liberal implicaba una nueva definición de lo que era y debería ser Cataluña, se discuten también las relaciones entre el patriotismo general español y los patriotismos de base provincial que se desarrollan en paralelo. Al fondo, más allá de los escenarios donde convencionalmente actúan aquellos personajes y donde se producen aquellas formulaciones y recreaciones de la historia y de la tradición, la violencia de conflicto rural e industrial explica, entre otras razones, la emergencia y el potencial conformador de ideas y sentimientos que estarían después en la base de la cultura del nacionalismo catalán contemporáneo. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. Throughout four millennia of recorded history there has been no end to empire, but instead an endless succession of empires. After five centuries of sustained expansion, the half-dozen European powers that ruled half of humanity collapsed with stunning speed after World War II, creating a hundred emerging nations in Asia and Africa. Amid this imperial transition, the United States became the new global hegemon, dominating this world order with an array of power that closely resembled that of its European predecessors.As Brazil, Russia, India, China, and the European Union now rise in global influence, twenty leading historians from four continents take a timely look backward and forward to discover patterns of eclipse in past empires that are already shaping a decline in U.S. global power, including:erosion of economic and fiscal strength needed for military power on a global scalemisuse of military power through micro-military misadventuresbreakdown of alliances among major powersweakened controls over the subordinate elites critical for any empire's exercise of global powerinsufficient technological innovation to sustain global force projection.…

Paperback. Condition: New. This collection follows the extraordinary careers of nine colonial subjects who won seats in high-level parliamentary institutions of the imperial powers that ruled over them. Revealing an unexplored dimension of the complex political organisation of modern empires, the essays show how early imperial constitutions allowed for the emergence of these unexpected members of parliament, asks how their presence was possible, and unveils the reactions across metropolitan circles, local communities and the voters who brought them to office.Unearthing the entanglements between political life in metropolitan and non-European societies, it illuminates the ambiguous zones, the margins for negotiation, and the emerging forms of leadership in colonial societies. From a Hispanicised Inca nobleman, to recently emancipated slaves and African colonial subjects, in linking these individuals and their political careers together, Unexpected Voices in Imperial Parliaments argues that the political organisation of modern empires incorporated the voices of the colonised and the non-European, in an ambiguous relationship that led to a widening of political participation and action throughout the imperial world. In doing so, this book offers a comprehensive but nuanced reassessment of the making and unmaking of modern empires.…
