The State, Unfreedom, and Emancipation in the Western Borderlands, a Roundtable
Since the early work of Herbert Eugene Bolton, borderlands frameworks have structured much of the scholarship on the North American West. Scholars typically characterize borderlands as places of cross-cultural interaction and limited, competing, or uneven state authority, where face-to-face relationships, kinship ties, and local customs are as significant as the whims of state actors, military officers, government agents, and soldiers. Such dynam…
Experimenting with a strong dual necessity approach to social progress
Different social progress indices assess well-being and development differently and thus reflect distinct conceptions of social progress. Broadly, these conceptions fall into two categories: ‘subjective’—the attitudes of individuals; and ‘objective’—external standards. Our starting point is a strong ‘dual necessity’ claim, namely that the two categories of conception have joint-special significance. Such a strong dual necessity conception, when o…
Related Around the Mountain
The 1851 Kúpangaxwicham (Cupeño) War was a multinational Native uprising that threatened to destroy U.S. settlements across Southern California. A Native man, Juan Antonio Chem'yuleqa Kústakik, ended the war and saved the United States' foothold in the region. Kústakik's act was not a devil's bargain to shelter his people, the Cahuilla, from impending conquest since the origins of the war lay in the multipolar Indigenous geopolitics of the Califo…
California, a Slave State
California, a Slave State contends that slave labor drove California's rise to prosperity, a vicious legacy that binds together the Spanish Empire's eighteenth-century missions to sexual trafficking in the twenty-first century. Jean Pfaelzer demonstrates that California is the culmination of Spanish, Mexican, Russian, and US systems of forced labor. She positions California at the nexus of Washington, DC, Saint Petersburg, Mexico City, and Sevill…
Financial Developments in London in the Seventeenth Century
A novel series of interest rates paid by the Corporation of London shows that interest rates in London declined by 350 basis points during the seventeenth century. The decline followed a similar pattern in Europe. Records from the Corporation's archive provide evidence for financial development: an increase in the number and volume of debt instruments, an increase in the number of lenders, and the development of a secondary market. Econometric an…
Financing the rebuilding of the City of London after the Great Fire of 1666
This article presents archival data on rebuilding costs and interest rates from the Corporation of London, 1666-83, to analyse how, in the absence of banking or capital market finance, the London Corporation funded the rebuilding of London after the Great Fire. The City borrowed from its citizens and outside investors at rates much lower than previously thought to replace vital services and to support large improvement works. Lenders were reassur…
Quill and Cross in the Borderlands
Theological author, holy apparition, legend of the borderlands—over the four centuries since she lived, Sor María de Ágreda has amassed many divergent identities and contradictory legacies. The most persistent of these personas is the Lady in Blue, a woman who began visiting and catechizing the Jumano people of eastern New Mexico in 1628. By the nineteenth century, the Lady in Blue had eclipsed Sor María's identity as a historical and authorial f…
The Worlds of Junípero Serra
The Worlds of Junípero Serra engages an academic and political landscape in which questions of colonial inheritance, national identity, immigration, and indigeneity have become increasingly fraught. Editor Steven W. Hackel evokes three contemporary moments that frame this collected volume: the 2013 tercentennial of Junípero Serra's birth, which inspired this project; Serra's contentious canonization in 2015; and the anti-Latinx and Trumpian fervo…
Indigenous Diplomacy and Spanish Mediation in the Lower Colorado-Gila River Region, 1771-1783
Drawing on expeditionary diaries, official correspondence, Indigenous-authored petitions, and incident reports, this article argues that between 1771 and 1783, the Quechán and "Maricopa" alliance networks controlling the Lower Colorado and Gila Rivers compelled Spanish officials to seek diplomatic entry points into a riverine "native ground." Contemporary studies of late Bourbon Indian policy foreground colonial officials' negotiations and treaty…
Institutional Reforms, Financial Development and Sovereign Debt
We revisit the evidence on the relations between institutions, the cost of government debt, and financial development in Britain (1690–1790) and find that interest rates remained high and volatile for four decades after the Glorious Revolution, partly due to wars and instability; British interest rates co-moved with those in Holland; Debt per capita remained lower in Britain than in Holland until around 1780; and Britain did not borrow at lower r…
Institutions, Reforms, and Country Risk
We investigate the effect of the establishment of modern institutions on the risk premium associated with Japanese government bonds traded in London between 1870 and 1914. While most institutional innovations failed to elicit an immediate market response, the adoption of the gold standard did significantly reduce the perceived risk associated with Japanese bonds. In addition, some geopolitical events, especially the military victory over Russia, …
The Late Medieval Bullion Famine Reconsidered
The bullion famine, manifested in chronic balance-of-payments deficits with the East, is widely cited as the cause of the great depression of the Renaissance. Adapting the monetary approach to the balance-of-payments model to the medieval commodity money setting this article shows that western Europe could not suffer a balance-of-payments deficits and bullion shortage simultaneously. New data show that it is unlikely that France suffered a shorta…
Debasements, Royal Revenues, and Inflation in France During the Hundred Years' War, 1415–1422
Historians of the period have generally played down the debasement of France's coinage to increase crown revenues during the Hundred Years' War or treated it as a last resort and an inept one. Based on archival data and an analytical framework drawn from the modern literature on inflation tax, this article supports challengers of that view, showing that debasement was an effective instrument of public finance
