| 요약 | This dissertation explores the making of racial understandings in early twentieth century Cuba, a period in which the nation's ideology of a raceless nationality coexisted with ongoing practices of racial discrimination. It does so by highlighting the tensions between social understandings articulated in racial terms and the changing social, political, and economic conditions that unfolded in Cuba between 1912 and 1944. Based upon research in more than a dozen archives in Cuba, the United States, and Great Britain, the dissertation explores the dynamic interaction between local and transnational processes in the making of racial interpretative frameworks in Cuba. These connections were shaped by the island's integration into the United States' empire in the Caribbean during the opening decades of the century. An important product of the Cuban/U.S. imperial encounter was a transnational information network constructed by Cubans and North Americans of various racial groups. These circuits served as vehicles for the circulation of racial ideas and practices between the two countries, making the production of racial knowledge in Cuba fundamentally a transnational phenomenon. |
| 요약 | The dissertation begins in the aftermath of the Cuban government's repression of the Independent Party of Color in 1912, an episode that vividly revealed the conflict between race and racelessness in Cuban society. The project examines the persistence of racial ideas and practices during the 1910s and 1920s, evident in the Afro-Cuban project of racial improvement and in the efforts of some whites to impose limits on black and mulatto advancement by enforcing practices of racial segregation in public spaces. Subsequent chapters illustrate how the economic and political crisis generated by the Great Depression, the collapse of the Cuban state in 1933, and the upsurge of popular mobilization in succeeding years, created the conditions for unprecedented challenges to practices of racial exclusion in Cuba. The project concludes in the early 1940s, a period when the discourses of democracy emanating from Second World War and the impending Cold War profoundly reshaped racial understandings in Cuban society. The result is a transnational history of racial knowledge, one that illuminates the ways racial understandings are produced, reproduced and redefined. |
