Juan José Ponce-Vázquez. Islanders and Empire: Smuggling and Political Defiance in Hispaniola, 1580–1690
No Limits to Their Sway: Cartagena's Privateers and the Masterless Caribbean in the Age of Revolutions
No Limits to Their Sway tells the story of the ephemeral, independent state of Cartagena, emphasizing “its development into a privateering republic, a polity that welcomed foreign outfitters, officers, and sailors by the hundreds, authorizing them to attack Spanish shipping on its behalf for a share of the prize money” (p. 6). Rethinking the Age of Revolutions from the perspective of a state that was eventually reconquered and obliterated illumin…
The 'Franklins of Colombia: Immigration Schemes and Hemispheric Solidarity in the Making of a Civilised Colombian Nation
During the 1820s, Colombia's diplomats in London, Washington and Philadelphia worked hard to obtain diplomatic recognition for their nascent republic. Their efforts were also geared towards making Colombia attractive to European and North American settlers whose industry and work ethic would, they hoped, turn it into a civilised and modern Euro-Atlantic nation. The immigration schemes they promoted enable us to understand the type of nations the …

Slavery and Antislavery in Spain's Atlantic Empire
The essays in this volume make an important contribution to understanding the process through which European empires shifted, as Seymour Drescher's aptly titled contribution puts it, “from empires of slavery to empires of antislavery” (p. 291). They do so by centering on Spain and its Atlantic empire. This focus results in the volume's most significant contribution and resounding statement: that the Spanish empire, far from being “a case apart in…
Beyond Compartmentalized Atlantics: A Case for Embracing the Atlantic from Spanish American Shores
Despite the recent surge of Atlantic histories that pursue connections across political boundaries, compartmentalized Atlantics still dominate the field's historiographical map. This paper presents some of the most recent efforts to construct Atlantic histories that cut across political borders and depict the entangled nature of lived experiences in the early modern Atlantic world. In particular, focusing on recent works that look at islands as l…
Turning South before Swinging East: Geopolitics and Geopolitical Imagination in the Southwestern Caribbean after the American Revolution
On July 21, 1786 a secret meeting took place in the office of the Spanish ambassador in Paris, Count of Aranda. The ambassador, aided by the Irish abbot O'Sullivan (who acted as translator), met John Brooks, a British captain who introduced himself as a loyalist veteran of the American Revolution. Brooks had come to Paris from London, all expenses covered by the Spanish government, to inform Aranda of an expedition projected in Britain to invade …
