Puerto Rican Labor History, 1898–1934
The Spanish-Cuban-American War marks a watershed in the history of the United States, signaling its rise as an intercontinental power. Following the 1899 Treaty of Paris, the North American republic took possession of Cuba and Puerto Rico, wresting Spain’s last two colonies in the Americas. Cuba declared its independence in 1902, but the United States retained indirect control by establishing a protectorate over the new nation through the Platt A…
Los grandes proyectos hidráulicos y las políticas antipalúdicas
El Canal de Panamá y los sistemas de riego que se implementaron en la Cuenca Hidrográfica del Ebro desde finales del siglo XIX son muestras representativas de las implicaciones sanitarias que estas obras suponían en unos territorios que experimentaban profundas transformaciones ambientales y que recibían una abundante mano de obra que, además, se veía obligada a residir en las proximidades de zonas convertidas en hábitats muy favorables para el d…
Adrian Fraser. The 1935 Riots in St Vincent
Resistance of one type or another has been a recurring theme in the history of the Caribbean, as countless researchers have demonstrated in numerous studies of slavery and other forms of servile labor. Of course, violent and nonviolent acts of defiance are not confined to those two areas. Oppositional actions and processes have occurred in other arenas throughout the region. Such is the case where local residents have engaged in protests, marches…

Confronting the Crisis of the Slave-Based Plantation System in Puerto Rico
By the late 1820s, Puerto Rico and Cuba had become Spain's only remaining colonies in the Americas and its major source of colonial returns. A decade later, however, the slave-based plantation system in Puerto Rico was beginning to show signs of stagnation due to the convergence of a number of domestic and international forces. In the late 1840s the Iberian colonial bureaucracy initiated a series of proposals to stimulate Puerto Rico's transforma…
Francophobia and Interimperial Politics in late Bourbon Puerto Rico
Reconstructs how Louis Balbes des Berton, or Duke of Crillón y Mahón, a Frenchman naturalized as Spaniard, attempted to persuade the Spanish Crown to grant him liberal commercial and colonizing concessions in Puerto Rico in the later 18th c. Author describes how Crillón at first wanted to settle and colonize parts of Santo Domingo near French St Domingue, but the Crown refused this, as part of increased measures against (further) foreign encroach…
Race, Colonial Exploitation and West Indian Immigration in Nineteenth-Century Puerto Rico, 1800-1850
“Unlike some Latin American mainland societies which still contain large numbers of indigenous peoples,” Jorge Duany observed, “Caribbean societies are immigrant societies almost from the moment of their conception.” Médéric-Louis-Élie Moreau de Saint- Méry likened the latter to “shapeless mixtures subject to diverse influences.” Their population, Dawn I. Marshall reminds us, “is to a large extent the result of immigration—from initial settlement…
