The Past and Present of the Political Economy and Authority in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines -- Part 3. The Past and Present of the Hierarchization of Difference and Power in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines -- Part 4. The (Post-)Colonial Legacies of Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Philippines: A Comparative View Summary "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"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Creative Commons Attribution-Non-Commercial-NoDerivatives https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed Subject POLITICAL SCIENCE / Colonialism & Post-Colonialism.
