One of the earliest and most important port cities in the New
World, Havana quickly became a model for the planning and
construction of other colonial cities. Beyond the Walled City tells
the story of how Havana was conceived, built, and managed.
Examining imperial efforts to police urban space from the late
sixteenth century onward, Guadalupe Garcia shows how the production
of urban space was explicitly centered on the politics of racial
exclusion and social control. Connecting colonial governing
practices to broader debates on urbanization, the regulation of
public spaces, and the racial dislocation of urban populations,
Beyond the Walled City points to the ways in which colonialism is
inscribed on modern topographies.
