The Politics of Energy in Colonial Suriname
In colonial Suriname, a society shaped by slavery and indenture, the infrastructure and technologies of energy arrived as extensions of a colonial order that had long concentrated resources among elites. Drawing on colonial and company archives, this article shows how working-class Surinamese women and men engaged with gas and electricity, destroying street lamps one day while demanding connection the next. During the tumultuous 1930s, these comm…
Dual Power
This essay takes up the questions that Ryan Cecil Jobson's The Petro-state Masquerade: Oil, Sovereignty, and Power in Trinidad and Tobago (2024) provokes: Who performs sovereignty in the age of oil—and to what ends? Reading the dueling theatrics of corporate and state power alongside popular attachments to fossil fuels, the author asks how the masquerade of petro-sovereignty endures and what forms of collective freedom might yet emerge from withi…
Electrifying Indonesia
Matthijs Kuipers, A Metropolitan History of the Dutch Empire
A Science of Reform and Retrenchment
This paper charts the emergence of social scientific studies on Black kinship from its origins in the United States and colonial Caribbean to its revivification in the decolonisation-era Netherlands. Demonstrating how racial knowledge was from its inception a tool of transnational governance, the author argues that Black kinship studies also informed the development of the Dutch welfare state in the aftermath of decolonisation. Drawing upon Dutch…

Insurgent Intimacies
This article examines the intertwined arguments for sexual revolution and decolonization in the Dutch Atlantic in the 1960s and 1970s. In this period, Antillean activists in the Netherlands and the Netherlands Antilles celebrated aspects of the Cuban Revolution and the US Black Power movement for their purported ability to regenerate romantic love. Activists contended that socialism and antiracist activism could forge new bonds of erotic equality…
Combatting the Sensuality of the Youth’
Conjuring Futures
This article explores the history of the Foundation for Cultural Cooperation between the Netherlands, Suriname, and the Netherlands Antilles (Sticusa), asking how cultural institutions partook in the process of decolonization. Analyzing the perspectives of Sticusa collaborators and critics in the Caribbean, I argue that cultural actors saw decolonization as an opportunity to reorient cultures toward an emergent world order. In this process, they …
This is the Soul of Aruba Speaking
In 1951, at the onset of major decolonization initiatives in the Netherlands Antilles, thousands of residents on Aruba successfully joined in protest to defeat Campo Alegre, a proposed brothel near the Aruban oil-refining city of San Nicolas. This article considers the protest movement within the context of Antillean decolonization and argues that debates over sexual politics played an important role in popularizing an Aruban identity separate fr…
