" After Spanish Rule occupies the ground between Latin American exceptionalism and the so-called universalism of postcolonial studies. These essays enrich the field of postcolonial studies by bringing Latin American materials within its purview."--Gyan Prakash, editor of After Colonialism: Imperial Histories and Postcolonial Displacements, "[T]his book is a thoughtful assessment of Latin America in the postcolonial historiography. After Spanish Rule makes a significant contribution to the debate by providing evidence that counters the idea of Latin American exceptionalism. It will be of interest to scholars and graduate students."-Charlotte M. Gradie, History: A Review of Books "[A]n outstanding collection of essays. . . . [G]raduate students and theoretically-oriented scholars will find much to excite their minds in these engaging essays that demonstrate recent orientations in historians' engagement with postcolonial theory."-Rick López, The Americas "[S]timuating. . . . [B]reaks some new ground in attempting to incorporate the former Spanish American colonies into discussions of postcolonialism."-Eric Van Young, American Historical Review "[I]ntriguing. . . . [T]hese articles do assist the reader to comprehend new ways of seeing. . . ."-Timothy E. Anna, The International History Review "After Spanish Rule is an important book, sparkling with insights and challenges to received wisdom. . . . [R]equired reading. . . . This volume proves that the engagement between Latin American and postcolonial studies is certainly worthwhile."-Peter Wogan, Journal of Anthropological Research "[A] fine and timely volume. . . . After Spanish Rule is both intellectually coherent and full of lively discussion between contributors. There is a real sense of the distinct essays communicating with each other, and the reader would be well advised to read the whole book. It is a valuable critical addition to the slowly growing field of postcolonial studies in the Americas."-Elisa Sampson Vera Tudela, Journal of Latin American Studies "[A] stimulating and provoking collection that reaches across a wide spectrum of fields and specialisations in order to overhaul the ways that we think about the period after Spanish rule. As Simón Bolívar might have reflected upon reading a volume such as this, ploughing the sea might have to be the first hesitant step towards serving the revolution."-Matthew Brown, Bulletin of Latin American Research, “ After Spanish Rule occupies the ground between Latin American exceptionalism and the so-called universalism of postcolonial studies.

A few days before my purchase, I asked the seller if they could wait for a specific day to ship the item, but they didn't reply until days after I made the purchase. The reply didn't address what I was asking. I was aware that the duration of the shipping is not under their control; I just wanted to try to time it with a specific shipping date. But the item was offered for a good price, and it arrived in decent shape. The packaging was good.
