2018 Outstanding Academic Title, selected by Choice Political
Culture in Spanish America, 1500-1830 examines the nature of
Spanish American political culture by reevaluating the political
theory, institutions, and practices of the Hispanic world.
Consisting of eight case studies with a focus on New Spain and
Quito, Jaime E. Rodriguez O. demonstrates that the process of
independence of Spanish America differs from previous claims. In
1188 King Alfonso IX convened the Cortes, the first congress in
Europe that included the three estates: the clergy, the nobility,
and the towns. This heritage, along with events in the sixteenth
century, including the rebellion of Castilla and the Protestant
Reformation, transformed the nature of Hispanic political thought.
Rodriguez O. argues that those developments, rather than the
Enlightenment, were the basis of the Hispanic revolution and the
Constitution of 1812. Emphasizing continuity rather than the
rejection of Hispanic political culture, and including the Atlantic
perspective, Political Culture in Spanish America, 1500-1830
demonstrates the nature of the Hispanic revolution and the process
of independence. Rodriguez O.'s work will encourage historians of
Spanish America to reexamine the political institutions and
processes of those nations from a broad perspective to gain a
deeper understanding of the Spanish American countries that emerged
from the breakup of the composite monarchy.
