At the Heart of the Borderlands: Africans and Afro-Descendants on the Edges of Colonial Spanish America
ISBN: 9780826364753 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At the Heart of the Borderlands is the first book-length study of Africans and Afro-descendants in the frontiers of Spanish America. While people of African descent have formed part of most borderlands' histories, this study recognizes and explains their critical contribution to the formation of frontier spaces.

Indigenous Autocracy: Power, Race, and Resources in Porfirian Tlaxcala, Mexico
