{"product_id":"after-spanish-rule-mark-thurner-9780822331940","title":"After Spanish Rule: Postcolonial Predicaments of the Americas","description":"Insisting on the critical value of Latin American histories for recasting theories of postcolonialism, \u003ci\u003e After Spanish Rule\u003c\/i\u003e is the first collection of essays by Latin Americanist historians and anthropologists to engage postcolonial debates from the perspective of the Americas. These essays extend and revise the insights of postcolonial studies in diverse Latin American contexts, ranging from the narratives of eighteenth-century travelers and clerics in the region to the status of indigenous intellectuals in present-day Colombia. The editors argue that the construction of an array of singular histories at the intersection of particular colonialisms and nationalisms must become the critical project of postcolonial history-writing. \u003cp\u003eChallenging the universalizing tendencies of postcolonial theory as it has developed in the Anglophone academy, the contributors are attentive to the crucial ways in which the histories of Latin American countries--with their creole elites, hybrid middle classes, subordinated ethnic groups, and complicated historical relationships with Spain and the United States--differ from those of other former colonies in the southern hemisphere. Yet, while acknowledging such differences, the volume suggests a host of provocative, critical connections to colonial and postcolonial histories around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors\u003cbr\u003eThomas Abercrombie\u003cbr\u003eShahid Amin\u003cbr\u003eJorge Cazares-Esguerra\u003cbr\u003ePeter Guardino\u003cbr\u003eAndr駸 Guerrero\u003cbr\u003eMarixa Lasso\u003cbr\u003eJavier Morillo-Alicea\u003cbr\u003eJoanne Rappaport\u003cbr\u003eMauricio Tenorio-Trillo\u003cbr\u003eMark Thurner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Thurner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0822331942\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822331940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/17\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.44h x 5.54w x 0.90d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mark Thurner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926529048831,"sku":"9780822331940","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_22bb89e3-e07b-4be2-973d-26f0a619990a.jpg?v=1681083571","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/after-spanish-rule-mark-thurner-9780822331940","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
