The Puerto Rican debt crisis, the challenges of social, political,
and economic transition in Cuba, and the populist politics of
Duterte in the Philippines-these topics are typically seen as
disparate experiences of social reality. Though these island
territories were colonized by the same two colonial powers-by the
Spanish Empire and, after 1898, by the United States-research in
the fields of history and the social sciences rarely draws links
between these three contexts. Located at the intersection of
Postcolonial Studies, Latin American Studies, Caribbean Studies,
and History, this interdisciplinary volume brings together scholars
from the US, Europe, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the
Philippines to examine the colonial legacies of the three island
nations of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. Instead of
focusing on the legacies of US colonialism, the continuing legacies
of Spanish colonialism are put center-stage. The analyses offered
in the volume yield new and surprising insights into the study of
colonial and postcolonial constellations that are of interest not
only for experts, but also for readers interested in the social,
political, economic, and cultural dynamics of Cuba, Puerto Rico,
and the Philippines during Spanish colonization and in the present.
The empirical material profits from a rigorous and systematic
analytical framework and is thus easily accessible for students,
researchers, and the interested public alike.
