The Last Days of the Mosquito Reservation
Geopolitical changes taking place in late nineteenth-century Central America laid the pathway for Nicaragua's long-desired incorporation of the autonomous Mosquito Reservation, which was located on its Caribbean Coast. This article brings to light the diplomatic mission undertaken by Mosquito Indians to restore their reservation using rarely accessed British Foreign Office documents. These sources detail the extensive efforts by the last heredita…

This article presents a biography of Chief Robert Henry Clarence, the last Hereditary Chief of the Mosquito Reservation- a historical territory formerly located on Nicaragua's Caribbean Coast. In 1894, the reservation was militarily incorporated into Nicaragua. The following account shines a light on the Mosquito (the largest Indigenous tribe living in Mosquitia-an historical territory on Central America's Caribbean Coast, stretching from Hondura…
Globalization, Governance, and the Emergence of Indigenous Autonomy Movements in Latin America
A revisiting of Salvador Martí i Puig's approach to globalization and the turn toward governance in explaining the roots and impact of the political mobilization of Latin America's indigenous peoples since the 1990s recasts governance as a disciplinary regime that in the case of Nicaragua co-opted potentially radical oppositional movements into the neoliberal project that accompanied Latin America's democratic transition. The discussion takes as …

The Historical Roots of Autonomy in Nicaragua's Caribbean Coast
This article reviews historical forms of localised government on Nicaragua's Caribbean coast and contrasts them with the contemporary struggle to attain a communal form of autonomy undertaken by the region's indigenous population. It suggests that the contemporary autonomy process shares few features with the historical precedents of localised government which are commonly invoked to legitimise it. Instead, its roots can be located in the emergen…

From British Colonialism to Revolutionary Developmentalism
This article discusses the emergence of demands for regional autonomy amongst the Miskitu inhabitants of Nicaragua's Caribbean Coast during the 1980s and concludes that the provenance of such demands should not be located in the historical precedents of the Kingdom of Mosquitia (1687-1860) and the Mosquito Reservation (1860-1894). Instead, its origins will be seen to lie in the impact of the developmentalist policies adopted by the Sandinista gov…
We Fought for our Land
This article re-examines the armed Miskitu insurgency conducted against the Sandinista revolutionary government on Nicaragua's Atlantic Coast (1981-1987) and discloses the problematic relationship that developed between Miskitu fighters and other non-indigenous, CIA-backed, armed, counter-revolutionary groups, or Contras. Drawing on interview data, the article also demonstrates how the divergent actions of the two main Miskitu leaders, Steadman F…

Sandinista Anti-Imperialist Nationalism and the Atlantic Coast of Nicaragua
This article addresses the cultural roots of conflict between the Sandinista government and the Miskitu Indians of Nicaragua's Atlantic Coast during the early 1980s. It examines how fundamental contradictions between the Sandinistas' anti-imperialist nationalism and the Miskitu's Anglo cultural affinities were exposed during the Literacy Project in Languages, leading the emergence of a militant form of Miskitu nationalism and the violent rejectio…
The Nicaraguan Literacy Crusade Revisited
This article draws on the ideas of Anderson (1991) in discussing the role played by the National Literacy Crusade of 1980 in imagining the Nicaraguan nation. As the article demonstrates, the National Literacy Crusade had the potential to create a sense of communion with a mass of anonymous others that is, according to Anderson, the hallmark of modern nations. At the same time, it was also a project that sought to foster a particular national iden…
