- More about (Post-)colonial Archipelagos: Comparing the Legacies of Spanish Colonialism in Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines
The colonial legacies of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines are examined in this interdisciplinary volume, which brings together scholars from the US, Europe, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Philippines. It focuses on the continuing legacies of Spanish colonialism rather than the legacies of US colonialism and offers new and surprising insights into the study of colonial and postcolonial constellations. The empirical material is easily accessible for students, researchers, and the interested public.

The Puerto Rican debt crisis, the challenges of social, political, and economic transition in Cuba, and the populist politics of Duterte in the Philippines are often viewed as distinct experiences of social reality. However, these island territories were colonized by the same two colonial powers—the Spanish Empire and, after 1898, the United States—and research in the fields of history and the social sciences rarely draws connections between these three contexts. This interdisciplinary volume, situated at the intersection of Postcolonial Studies, Latin American Studies, Caribbean Studies, and History, brings together scholars from the US, Europe, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Philippines to examine the colonial legacies of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. Rather than focusing on the legacies of US colonialism, the volume highlights the enduring impact of Spanish colonialism. The analyses presented in the volume offer fresh and unexpected insights into the study of colonial and postcolonial constellations, which are of interest not only to experts but also to 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 is supported by a rigorous and systematic analytical framework, making it accessible to students, researchers, and the general public alike.
