"Migración y sostenibilidad ambiental en la Hispaniola explora las dinámicas entre el ser humano y la naturaleza a partir de los estudios de caso de los parques nacionales Nalga de Maco, República Dominicana, y Pic Macaya, República de Haití. Ambos casos de estudio son abordados entendiendo las relaciones sociales, productivas y culturales que producen espacios protegidos en un entorno altamente antropizado que pone en riesgo su conservación para las futuras generaciones. El texto parte de información de campo en la cual se analiza la forma en que se construye un discurso sobre la degradación ambiental, situando a los habitantes rurales --y en especial a los migrantes- como un elemento que introduce nuevos significantes a los procesos de reestructuración de las zonas rurales que deben ser comprendidas más allá de una lógica binaria que contrapone Io humano a lo físico-natural, sino como parte de marcos más globales que se relacionan con el conocimiento, los mercados y los proyectos de desarrollo."--page 4 of cover

Islanders and Empire examines the role smuggling played in the cultural, economic, and socio-political transformation of Hispaniola from the late sixteenth to seventeenth centuries. With a rare focus on local peoples and communities, the book analyzes how residents of Hispaniola actively negotiated and transformed the meaning and reach of imperial bureaucracies and institutions for their own benefit. By co-opting the governing and judicial powers of local and imperial institutions on the island, residents could take advantage of, and even dominate, the contraband trade that reached the island's shores. In doing so, they altered the course of the European inter-imperial struggles in the Caribbean by limiting, redirecting, or suppressing the Spanish crown's policies, thus taking control of their destinies and that of their neighbors in Hispaniola, other Spanish Caribbean territories, and the Spanish empire in the region.

Reinterpreting the Haitian Revolution as both an islandwide and a circum-Caribbean phenomenon, Graham Nessler examines the intertwined histories of Saint-Domingue, the French colony that became Haiti, and Santo Domingo, the Spanish colony that became the Dominican Republic. Nessler argues that the territories' borders and governance were often unclear and mutually influential.

"The Dominican Racial Imaginary subverts the way of knowledge of Dominican elites by telling the stories of 'the forced delivered child.' This child (a blend of Africans, Tainos, and Spanish) fled to the mountains escaping the abuses of the colonizer and became an adult in maroon communities. This book takes a look at history as a space of interrogation. When and how did Africa become part of the Dominican racial mix? In renewing the past, rather than the imposed Indo-Hispanic racial homogenization narrative, we might see something more--the historical creation of a multiracial rainbow. The stories the child/adult tell about the slave traffic, anti-colonial movements, the division of the island, more anti-colonial revolutions, abolition, and renewal of colonial oppressions. These stories also tell about cultural constructions unique to the island and the formation of a subversive racial imaginary. Battles against the continuity of white supremacist values people cultural practices, and ways of knowing attest to this subverted imaginary. In telling the stories of women dancing under the spell of the snake, of youngsters in New York City wearing dreadlocks, of Dominican intellectuals and politicians searching for their true identity, of people creating cooperation at the Haitian-Dominican border, this book strongly argues that there is a nation of Dominicans battling against the continuity of white supremacist values"--Provided by publisher
Portuguese and Amsterdam Sephardic Merchants in the Tobacco Trade is a history of the role of Portuguese and Sephardic merchants in the tobacco industry and trade of Amsterdam. It focuses on the contraband trade with Tierra Firme and Hispaniola in the early seventeenth century as documented in the Engel Sluiter Historical Documents Collection. The intriguing question is, was tobacco traded and shipped alongside sugar or did the two trade flows have no relationship to each other? Whereas sugar cultivation was introduced to the Americas via the Atlantic Islands to Brazil and then transferred to the French and English Caribbean colonies, tobacco cultivation was indigenous to the Americas and was first introduced to Europe as mariners and merchants explored and engaged in mostly illegal trade along the Caribbean coast and estuaries of South America and the Caribbean Islands in the early seventeenth-century. Yda Schreuder highlights the impact of merchant networks that developed between Portuguese and Sephardic merchants in the course of the Eighty Years' War (1568-1648) between the Dutch Republic and the Spanish Habsburg Empire and uses the opportunity to explore the Engel Sluiter Historical Documents Collection available for research at the University of California, Berkeley Bancroft Library.
