Paper Trails

It argues that throughout the history of the Americas passports have acquired meanings exceeding contemporary associations with national citizenship that are discernible in literary works and in the archival record.

Colonial Transfusions
María Elena Martínez (1966-2014)
Ever Faithful: Race, Loyalty, and the Ends of Empire in Spanish Cuba
Challenging assumptions that loyalty to the Spanish empire was the exclusive province of the white Cuban elite, this groundbreaking history brings attention to free and enslaved people of African descent who actively supported colonialism

The reality of these processess permanently debunked the developmentalism of Euro-American Marxist theory that privileged a model of revolutionary …
My Vassals: Free-Colored Militias in Cuba and the Ends of Spanish Empire
My Vassals: Free-Colored Militias in Cuba and the Ends of Spanish Empire David Sartorius Decades of scholarship on the history of African-descended people in colonial Latin America have shown that militia service was a durable marker of status and collective identity. The free black and mulatto colonial subjects who belonged to militia regiments won the respect of their families, their communities, their military and political superiors, and cert…
