  • Zoë Laidlaw and Alan Lester, editors. Indigenous Communities and Settler Colonialism: Land Holding, Loss and Survival in an Interconnected World

    Margaret D JacobsARTICLEThe American Historical Review2016

    Recent work on settler colonialism has tended toward the global and the transnational, threatening to once again erase the local histories of Indigenous communities. In this new volume of essays, co-editors Zoë Laidlaw and Alan Lester acknowledge the “difficulty of encompassing the global scale of Indigenous dispossession and resilience in the face of the Anglo-world’s settler invasion” (5). Laidlaw, Lester, and their many contributors turn to th…

  • Genocide or Ethnic Cleansing? Are These Our Only Choices

    Margaret D JacobsARTICLEWestern Historical Quarterly2016Cited by: 1

    Gary Clayton Anderson has boldly instigated a conversation on the nature of Indian-white conflict in the American West—in a nutshell he asks, was it genocide or ethnic cleansing? Anderson answers this emphatically: ethnic cleansing, which he defines as “forced dislocation with the intent to take away lands of a particular ethnic, religious, or cultural group.” He argues that we should not label what happened in the West in the late nineteenth cen…

At the same time, delving into the complex history of the US W…

  • Getting Out of a Rut: Decolonizing Western Women's History

    Margaret D JacobsARTICLEPacific Historical Review2010Cited by: 1

    For over three decades, western women's historians have been working not just to challenge male biases within western history scholarship but also to create a more multicultural inclusive narrative. Paradoxically, however, the overarching narrative of western women's history continues to sideline women of color and to advance a triumphalist interpretation of white women in the West. This essay argues that a multicultural approach has not provided…

  • Mixed-Bloods, Mestizas, and Pintos: Race, Gender, and Claims to Whiteness in Helen Hunt Jackson’s Ramona and María Amparo Ruiz de Burton’s Who Would Have Thought It?

    Margaret D JacobsARTICLEWestern American literature2001

    A number of literary scholars have found much to compare between Jackson's Ramona and Ruiz de Burton's other novel, The Squatter and the Don. Both take place in nineteenth-century California and provide contrasting views of Californio and indigenous cultures. A comparison of Who Would Have Thought It? and Ramona, however, yields further crucial insights into how Ruiz de Burton critiqued Easterners' views of the West. Rather than situating this no…

In these settings Hurtado explores courtship, marriage, reproduction, and family li…
