El artículo aborda el proceso de formación de las elites africanas en la sociedad colonial de la antigua Guinea Española: la minoría criolla llegada con los británicos a partir de 1827; los jefes «tradicionales», subordinados al poder colonial y esenciales para el control de la sociedad colonizada; y la emergente clase de funcionarios, maestros, empleados, catequistas y suboficiales de la Guardia Colonial, todos ellos auxiliares de la Administración, las empresas europeas o las misiones, formados en la escuela colonial. La evolución del proceso se divide cronológicamente en el periodo anterior a la Guerra Civil, el franquismo colonial y el periodo descolonizador iniciado con la provincialización de 1959, cuando se aceleró la formación superior de profesionales.

En este artículo se analizan dos textos del teatro centroamericano de principios del siglo XIX: La política del mundo (1809) y tres piezas dramáticas sin título de Joaquín de Oreamuno y Muñoz de la Trinidad. Todos se escribieron para celebrar la llegada de Fernando VII al trono español; de ahí que La política del mundo se plantee como una alegoría de las condiciones políticas del momento, en la que el traidor muere asesinado. En el aspecto ideológico, las páginas de Oreamuno y Muñoz subordinan los actos humanos al poder ultraterreno y someten a juicio al traidor de la autoridad monárquica.

Full textAbstract:
Costa Rica has won praise for its democratic traditions and social stability. Social scientists have attributed this to many factors: the country's benign colonial past, its small and relatively homogeneous population, the existence of a land owning peasantry, and the development, beginning in the 1930s, of a social welfare state. As it did elsewhere, the Great Depression marked a crossroads in Costa Rica's development. In response to the collapse of its international markets and the ensuing labour unrest, the state jettisoned its economic liberalism, and assumed an interventionist role in the management of the economy and labour–capital relations. This fundamentally reformist role developed through the 1930s and culminated in 1943 with the passage of a package of Christian-based social reforms including a comprehensive labour code under the administration of Rafael Calderón Guardia (1940–4).

Full textAbstract:
This work consists of a historical and geospatial reconstruction, using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), of a sector of the alternative route of the Costa Rican Atlantic railway called: "Fajardo line", built between 1871-1873 and later abandoned. It was promoted by the government of Tomás Guardia Gutiérrez and executed by the North American contractor Henry Meiggs Keith. At the time, this work included, geographically, the north and west of the colonial valleys of Orosi and Ujarrás respectively, in the province of Cartago. This research covered the compilation of documents (historical), and geospatial inputs, as well as the identification, analysis, and integration, through GIS, of construction traces of civil works and evidence of associated anthropic activity, within the study area. As a result, it was possible to geospatially reconstruct the original railway route in the geographic sector of interest, through a reliable, methodological integration of the different identified evidence.

Abstract This article explores why victims of cattle theft in colonial north India avoided the police and courts, whose very purpose was to apprehend thieves and to restore stolen property. Throughout colonial rule, victims recovered stolen cattle themselves and with the help of khojis (trackers) and panchayat (indigenous systems). From the mid-nineteenth century onward, however, the British colonial government introduced criminal laws, like the Indian Penal Code and the Indian Evidence Act, and relied on colonial police to enforce those laws. These colonial laws and policing systems proved not only highly ineffective at dealing with theft, worsening the plight of victims while protecting thieves, but they also eroded the authority of indigenous institutions. By revisiting an important case, the Karnal Cattle Lifting Case (1913), the article shows how the institution of colonial police and courts oppressed rural Indian people and how and why Indian people, in turn, avoided colonial justice systems.

Analisamos a relação entre a autoimolação de Mohamed Bouazizi após conflitos com a guarda tunisiana e sua imagem, seguida de uma seção de narrativas apresentadas pelo jornal britânico The Guardian, pensando as representações do episódio e de seus efeitos na mídia Ocidental e considerando as relações Oriente/Ocidente. Por fim, investigamos o contexto sociopolítico a fim de pensar o contexto colonial, a construção das identidades de colonizador e colonizado e os limites que colocam às mudanças. Aponta-se para rupturas na esfera simbólica, como a mudança do regime político, e continuidades no campo econômico, dada a dependência da Tunísia de investimentos estrangeiros e a continuidade da pobreza e desemprego, sobretudo de jovens universitários e moradores de cidades pequenas.

Esta pesquisa aborda a corrupção, reconhecendo a importância das redes transnacionais informais na perpetuação da corrupção. O objetivo geral é compreender, sob a lente pós-colonial, como a corrupção se constitui um fenômeno transnacional. Realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa, com a análise de documentos sobre casos de corrupção envolvendo um grande banco internacional: o HSBC Holdings Plc. O material empírico foi extraído da organização International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) e do jornal britânico The Guardian, sendo submetido à análise temática. O mapa temático final destaca dois temas que desvelam as relações coloniais: a cumplicidade dos agentes do sistema financeiro com os infratores e a impunidade do colonizador com esses mesmos agentes. Os resultados apontam para um padrão histórico de leniência e conivência do banco com criminosos, com diversos processos acusatórios encerrados com acordos, resumidos às multas que, por maiores que fossem em relação às práticas da justiça até então, não representavam sanções que inibissem as eventuais reincidências.

Full textAbstract:
History has lessons for the present; could this be the case for modern counterinsurgency operations in countries resembling Iraq and Afghanistan? This research set out to study three historical counter-insurgencies campaigns in, Malaya (1947-1960), Kenya (1952- 1960) and Rhodesia (1964-1980), with a view to establishing whether or not the Colonial authorities had a substantial advantage over modern forces when combating insurgencies. If this was the case, are these advantages transferable to aid forces involved in modern counterinsurgencies?
The research questions focussed on how important the role of the Colonial Forces was to the eventual outcome, examining the principal factors that contributed to their effectiveness? Included in this examination were aspects of strategy, together with an appreciation of the concept of ‘hearts and minds’, tactics and the evolution of counterinsurgency doctrine.
A qualitative research design was adopted, using a case study methodology based upon comparative analysis of the data collected. Case studies were constructed for the three conflicts, based around the narratives obtained from a series of semi-structured interviews, with surviving members of the security forces; predominately police and Special Branch. The primary data was coded, using a thematic framework developed from the Literature Review. These themes were then synthesised, analysed and interpreted in response to the research questions related to the perceived problem. Lastly, the findings were compared and contrasted to provide theoretical recommendations and conclusions.
The study indicated the significant role played by the Colonial Police Forces, especially Special Branch, which appears to have been instrumental in dominating initiatives against the rebels. Supporting the police, were Colonial army units together with locally recruited indigenous militias in a combined approach to prosecuting an effective counterinsurgency campaign. In addition, this was reinforced by the Colonial Government’s ability to apply draconian legislation in support of the strategic plan, to reinforce the rule of law by the police, coupled with its ability to garner popular support through civil projects, such as schools, clinics and housing. Evolving counter-insurgency doctrine advocated the need to cut off the insurgents from their supplies, by separating them from the general population. Separation was achieved by the forced movement of the population into ‘Protected Villages’ backed up by food control, harsh collective punishments, detention and curfews. Further key beneficial factors for the Colonial Forces included their knowledge of religious customs, culture and language, which enhanced their ability to gather vital intelligence direct from the population; rather than second hand.
Analysing the concept of ‘hearts and minds’ since 1947, indicated it was evolving as a strategy and was not operationally as well accepted as it is today. Although often considered a benevolent approach to gaining the support of the population, the research also demonstrated the antithesis of this approach occurred by the insurgents applying power over ‘minds’ of the population though intimidation, terrorism, and physiological control. This psychological control was achieved through sorcery, spirit mediums and the taking of oaths.
Ultimately, political solutions not military ones ended the insurgencies. The theoretical recommendations indicated that greater attention needs to be expended in training counter-insurgency forces to empathise with the local population when conducting overseas operations; especially improved knowledge of religious customs, culture and language. The outcome would enhance their capabilities through better population support resulting in superior intelligence.

Despite vast research on North American Indigenous people and their struggles with sovereignty and autonomy, little attention has been paid to internal conflict within a First Nation. Inter community conflicts affect Mi’kmaq peoplehood and they relate to themselves and each other. This research was conducted in Mi’kma’ki, the traditional Mi’kmaq territory and explored issues surrounding language, financial wellbeing, geography, and Pow-wow. Interviews with 17 self-identified Indigenous people in Nova Scotia, Canada reveal that colonially induced conflicts only run so deep. Pow-wows seem to lesson conflict and become space of political protest, social inclusion and cultural reclamation. Hope lies with the younger generations who are now extending their relationships beyond the borders of the reserve.

AbstractThis chapter focusses on the state-sponsored ecological transformation of Aotearoa New Zealand’s wetlands into grasslands under the auspices of settler colonialism, agricultural productivism, and public health. The physical removal of wetlands, we argue, were a constitutive part of the mechanisms of settler colonial domination. We demonstrate how the destruction of wetlands diminished the resilience of Indigenous Māori communities and contributed to a reduction in Māori wellbeing. We demonstrate that wetland loss was an environmental injustice that had specific implications for Māori peoples due to their material, socio-cultural, and spiritual connections. Lastly, we highlight how Māori agency whereby individuals used settler-colonial political and legal processes to try to mitigate damage to their wetlands, to exercise their responsibilities as kaitiaki (environmental guardians) and demand environmental justice.

AbstractThis chapter explores Yoruba divination systems as complex systems of patakís meant to aid in the healing process in the dystopian island geographies of Rita Indiana’s La Mucama de Omicunlé. Specifically, the chapter explores this concept through the figure of Olokun, guardian of stories and mysteries of creation who resides at the bottom of the sea. What is more, Olokun provides the stories necessary to reflect upon how we might be transformed by our past, present, and futures at the crossroads of being in diaspora. In this way, the chapter demonstrates the transformative time-space of Olokun as a radical figure of decolonial yearning in order to move away from the replication of colonial racial-gender-sexual-economic violence that has torn apart the fictional, dystopian world time and again in order to repair ourselves and move forward toward a new future of liberation, one that will emerge from the spatio-temporal crossroads opened by the forgotten mysteries of the sea.

Full textAbstract:
In his thesis on Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, Steinberg postulated the fundamental role of the spectator (object of the appealing gazes of the five young nudes in the painting) as the catalyst of the meanings in the painting. From then on new critical perspectives would speculate about this subject, targeted by the personages in the painting, who bears so much responsibility in articulating the interpretation of the scene. Doubts were raised about the universal character of the gaze, the universal character of the receptor of the work of art and of Modern Art. From the end of the 20th century and activated by the most recent methodological approaches such as feminism and post-colonialism, new critical voices provoked the breaching of the dominating gaze. This chapter broaches the interpretations of this paradigmatic work of Modern Art made by feminist and post-colonial and subaltern theories, questioning the very proposals of Modernism. Feminism shows how gender conditioning affects the reception of a work of art. And allied with this, post-colonialism and subaltern theory begin to seriously question the way historiography has considered, or not, the relevance of Art négre in the avant-guard eclosion.

Abstract This chapter introduces the complex story of policing in Karachi and offers a unique framework of the "post-colonial condition of policing" for understanding policing and policework in Pakistan and beyond. It suggests that routine policework in cities such as Karachi is impacted by the post-colonial condition of policing, in which security threats by insecure regimes are framed in particular ways towards political and economic ends, leading everyday policing to be characterized by militarization and procedural informality. In this chapter, the characteristics of the post-colonial condition of policing are defined and assembled, connecting both the institution's colonial legacies and its contemporary socio-political relationships and realities. This chapter also reflects upon the book's methodological design and considerations.

Abstract The chapter focuses on historical transformations in Sateré-Mawé communities and the networks of circulation and forms of knowledge production surrounding guaraná that were engendered by the advent of Portuguese colonialism and early Brazilian state formation. Foregrounding the late seventeenth-century text written by the Jesuit missionary João Felipe Bettendorff, the earliest European written description of guaraná, the chapter reflects on the origins and impact of guarana´s insertion into Western networks of knowledge and power that emerged with the centralization of European states and expansion of empires, the spread of Christianity, and the globalization of science. The chapter highlights the entanglement of Indigenous lifeways in the broader Atlantic world owing to violence, missionizing, commercial exchange, and Brazilian Indigenous peoples’ strategic initiatives. Mapping guaraná’s colonial and early nineteenth-century trajectory reveals historically intertwined networks of trade, knowledge, and power in the Brazilian Amazon.

Full textAbstract:
The task of reviewing the silences present in hegemonic histories emerges at the beginning of the 20th century, seeking to provide a more amplified way of understanding the history of peoples and nations subjected to colonial subjugation. Rufino (2019) considers that this space of decolonization presents itself under the name of “encruzilhada” (crossroads) and understands the potentialities of the orixá Exu, of Yoruba spirituality: the orixá of communication, of the paths and the guardian of axé (vital energy). Exu disarray what exist to reconstruct— therefore, since the encruzilhada is Exu’s place, it is a space that allows the crossing of knowledge produced as deviations from colonial impositions on so-called official knowledge, a process which the author names “cruzo” (cross): the encruzilhada is a refusal to everything put as absolute; Exu is the movement of that encruzilhada. In addition to the positivization of the knowledge and ways of living of peoples who have suffered, over the centuries, from numerous processes of inferiority, it is necessary to insert this knowledge in the cultural elements of the present— and in the conceptions about the future. It is in this context that, regarding the experience of Afro-diasporic peoples, a global aesthetic movement that encompasses arts, literature, audiovisual and academic research emerges: Afrofuturism (YASZEK, 2013). Afrofuturism goal is to connect the dilemmas of the African diaspora to technological innovations, commonly unavailable to the descendants of the enslaved, and it aims to establish possible future scenarios— scenarios that contemplate the presence and, furthermore, the protagonism of black people (YASZEK, 2013). To this end, the movement breaks with the Western linear chronology and starts to consider time in a cyclic way, interweaving past, present and future in a single composition: in the same way that Exu, in the Yoruba cosmology, killed a bird yesterday with a stone that has only been thrown today, Afrofuturism weaves a web of historical and cultural retaking of African memory with questions that arise from the reflection of the problems faced by black people in the present, in order to think about a positive and possible future, once a dystopian scenario is already weighing on the shoulders of them. In the frontier of visual arts and design, Luiz Gustavo Nostalgia, a creator based on Rio de Janeiro, dismantles existing images and rearranges them through collages to create a new intention of meaning. His work evokes the cruzo on the principle of rearranging— central to collages— with the widespread rearrangement of our ways of living and understanding society— based on an Afrofuturistic conception of world— by celebrating African motifs, culture and spirituality, allied to the already acquainted aesthetics of “future” (such as the galaxy, bright lights and robotic elements). Through your creation, the artist is capable of presenting a future where black people do exist as protagonists and have their culture, past and roots celebrated.

Full textAbstract:
La tarea de revisar los silencios presentes en las historias hegemónicas surge a principios del siglo XX, buscando dar una forma más amplia de entender la historia de los pueblos y naciones sometidos a la subyugación colonial. Rufino (2019) considera que este espacio de descolonización se presenta bajo el nombre de “encruzilhada” y entiende las potencialidades del orixá Exu, de la espiritualidad yoruba: el orixá de la comunicación, de los caminos y el guardián del axé (energía vital). Exu desordena lo que existe para reconstruirlo. Por lo tanto, ya que la encruzilhada es el lugar de Exu, es un espacio que permite el cruce de los conocimientos producidos como desviaciones de las imposiciones coloniales sobre el llamado conocimiento oficial, proceso que el autor denomina “cruzo”: la encruzilhada es un rechazo a todo lo puesto como absoluto; Exu es el movimiento de esa encruzilhada. Además de la positivización de los conocimientos y modos de vida de los pueblos que han sufrido a lo largo de los siglos numerosos procesos de inferioridad, es necesario insertar estos conocimientos en los elementos culturales del presente y en las concepciones sobre el futuro. Es en este contexto en el que, en relación con la experiencia de los pueblos afrodiaspóricos, surge un movimiento estético global que abarca las artes, la literatura, lo audiovisual y la investigación académica: el afrofuturismo (YASZEK, 2013). El objetivo del afrofuturismo es conectar los dilemas de la diáspora africana con las innovaciones tecnológicas, comúnmente no disponibles para los descendientes de los esclavizados, y pretende establecer posibles escenarios futuros, escenarios que contemplen la presencia y, además, el protagonismo de las personas negras (YASZEK, 2013). Para ello, el movimiento rompe con la cronología lineal occidental y pasa a considerar el tiempo de forma cíclica, entrelazando pasado, presente y futuro en una misma composición. De la misma manera que Exu, en la cosmología yoruba, mató un pájaro ayer con una piedra que sólo ha sido lanzada hoy, el Afrofuturismo teje una red de retomo histórico y cultural de la memoria africana con cuestiones que surgen de la reflexión de los problemas a los que se enfrenta la población negra en el presente, para pensar en un futuro positivo y posible una vez que un escenario distópico pesa ya sobre sus hombros. En la frontera entre las artes visuales y el diseño, Luiz Gustavo Nostalgia, creador afincado en Río de Janeiro, desmonta las imágenes existentes y las reordena mediante collages para crear una nueva intención de sentido. Su obra evoca el cruzo del principio de reordenación -central en los collages- con la reordenación generalizada de nuestras formas de vivir y entender la sociedad -basada en una concepción afrofuturista del mundo- al celebrar los motivos africanos, la cultura y la espiritualidad, aliados a la estética ya conocida del “futuro” (como la galaxia, las luces brillantes y los elementos robóticos). A través de su creación, el artista es capaz de presentar un futuro en el que las personas negras existen como protagonistas y en el que se celebra su cultura, su pasado y sus raíces.

Full textAbstract:
Las ciudades turísticas intentan recrear los imaginarios internacionales sobre culturas determinadas, adaptándose a las expectativas que se tengan sobre el sitio a visitar. Los imaginarios son la realidad social construida desde los ciudadanos. A través de ellos las personas aprehendemos y explicamos las percepciones que nos formamos sobre los otros, los eventos y relaciones, así como sobre las obras y objetos.
En las ciudades del turismo emergentes, la construcción de los equipamientos turísticos, tanto públicos, como privados, hace tabula rasa de la ciudad preexistente, dejando de lado las experiencias culturales
locales, para preparar un escenario óptimo, que haga atractivo el sitio al público extranjero. En ese sentido los referentes culturales de lo mexicano, plasmados en la arquitectura, retoman elementos de
distintas regiones y momentos históricos, acordes al imaginario internacional. Esos lenguajes arquitectónicos funcionan como referencia de autenticidad del espacio consumido, validando la experiencia turística.
El objetivo de este trabajo es dar luz sobre el origen de las formas arquitectónicas –la morfogénesis- de una ciudad turística emergente. Es decir, observaremos los lenguajes urbanos y arquitectónicos, y la
relación que los diseños exhibidos guardan hacia el imaginario internacional de la cultura mexicana. Para ello, utilizaremos como instrumentos los recorridos que los turistas hacen para acceder a los desarrollos
turísticos, las imágenes expuestas en lugares específicos, así como el análisis del relato emitido por el turista en relación a la experiencia vivida. Nuestros medios de acceso serán las imágenes reales
(tomadas in situ por las autoras) y aquellas recogidas de los sitios web de las cadenas hoteleras y de las bitácoras personales (blogs) de turistas disponibles en Internet. Con estos instrumentos pretendemos
asociar los lenguajes plásticos del sitio con aquellos provenientes de imaginarios internacionales sobre la cultura mexicana, más allá de los de la realidad del sitio analizado. Retomamos a manera de ejemplo dos
puntos de vista: el del promotor inmobiliario y del turista. El caso de estudio es Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, ciudad que ha sufrido una fuerte conversión a las
actividades turísticas en los últimos diez años y cuyo auge inmobiliario, representa un caso emblemático del turismo en el noroeste mexicano.
Adelantándonos a manera de breve conclusión, podemos señalar que las imágenes montadas en el armado y diseño del puerto anterior cumplen la paradójica función asentarse en la memoria del viajero (crear una ciudad memorable y singular), a la vez que autentifican la experiencia turística, es decir, son imágenes congruentes con el imaginario que el turista se ha formado aún antes de iniciar su recorrido, ya sea a través de los relatos de otros viajeros o del discurso del promotor inmobiliario. Ambos disponibles con la facilidad de un clic.
Por otro lado, los referentes buscados por los promotores turísticos, están ligados, mediante la arquitectura y el urbanismo a la antigua arquitectura mexicana, de las culturas prehispánicas, las haciendas rurales y la arquitectura colonial, que poco o nada tienen que, ver con las actualidad de las ciudades mexicanas y mucho menos con el entorno regional de Puerto Peñasco. Sin embargo, ese tratamiento permite la creación de un ambiente "ideal" para el acercamiento a la cultura mexicana que los turistas esperan.
Al contrastar los puntos de vista de un viajero y de un promotor inmobiliario de esta localidad portuaria, daremos cuenta de la ciudad deseada y de la ciudad ficción, acercándonos de esta manera a la "ciudad
real", que bien pareciera la copia de las dos anteriores. The tourist cities intend to recreate the international imaginaries about certain cultures, adapting to the given expectations of the visiting place. The imaginaries are the social reality built by the citizens. Through them, people seize and explain their perceptions on others, on events and relationships, and as well as on
objects.
In the emerging cities of tourism, the building up of equipment, public as well as private, ignores the preexisting city. Cultural local experiences are left aside to prepare an optimal scenario that would make
the place attractive for the foreign visitors. In this sense, the cultural references for “the Mexican” are
captured trough architecture. They take elements from different regions and different historical momentums, according to the international imaginary. These architectural languages works as an
authenticity reference for space, validating the tourist experience.
The objective of this paper is to throw light on the origin of architectural forms –the morphogenesis- in an emerging tourist city. We will look at the urban and architectural languages, as well as the connexion that the exhibit designs keep towards the Mexican culture international imaginary. In order to do so, we will take advantage of the itineraries the tourists follow to get to the tourist developments, of the images exposed in specific places, and of the tourists account of their experiences. Our means of access will be
the real images (taken by the author of this paper) and those collected in web sites of hotel chains and personal tourist journals (blogs). With these instruments we intend to associate the place plastic languages with those derived from international imaginaries on the Mexican culture. As an example we
take into account to points of view: the real estate promoter’s and the tourist’s.
The case of study is Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, a city that has suffered a tough switch to the tourist activities within the last ten years, and of which its real-estate growth represents an emblematic case in the
Mexican northwest.
Bringing forward a brief conclusion, it can be pointed out that the array of images and the port design achieve the paradoxical function settle themselves on the traveller’s memory (creating a memorable and
singular city), and at the same time they authenticate the tourist experience. In other words, these images are consistent with the imaginary that the tourists have formed even before they began their tour. This recreation of the images is accessible through the stories of other travellers or trough the speech of realestate promoters (realties), both of which available with a single “clic”.On other side, the references seek by the tourist realties are attached to the antique Mexican architecture: the pre-Hispanic cultures, the haciendas and the colonial period, that have very few or nothing to do with the regional environment of Puerto Peñasco. However, that array allows the creation of an "ideal"
environment, expected by the tourist to approach to the Mexican culture.
Finally, contrasting the point of view of a traveller and a real-estate promoter, we will expose the desired city and the fictional city. In this way, we will approach to the "real city", which now seems the copy of the other two.
