The Great African Slave Revolt of 1825
In June 1825 the Cuban countryside witnessed a large African-led slave rebellion -- a revolt that began a cycle of slave uprisings lasting until the mid-1840s. The Great African Slave Revolt of 1825 examines this movement and its participants for the first time, highlighting the significance of African warriors in New World plantation society. Unlike previous slave revolts -- led by alliances between free people of color and slaves, blacks and mulattoes, Africans and Creoles, and rural and urban populations -- only African-born men organized the uprising of 1825. From this year onwards, Barcia argues, slave uprisings in Cuba underwent a phase of Africanization that concluded only in the mid-...

Geopolitica y alimentos
El suministro alimentario es un asunto vital para la geopolítica mundial. En las últimas décadas, la competencia internacional por los recursos naturales ha generado la inclusión de los alimentos en ponderaciones estratégicas y de seguridad de potencias centrales y emergentes. En un mundo donde una de cada nueve personas padece de hambre crónica y se espera que para el año 2050 su población aumente a más de 9,300 millones, cobra significativa importancia analizar los factores geopolíticos que condicionan el suministro alimentario. El sistema agroalimentario mundial, hegemonizado por EE.UU. desde la Guerra Fría, ha estado sujeto a un proceso de reconfiguración estructural por el e...

Finding Fairness
In this ambitious work, Justin Jennings explores the origins, endurance, and elasticity of ideas about fairness and how these ideas have shaped the development of societies at critical moments over the last 20,000 years. He argues that humans have an innate expectation for fairness, a disposition that evolved during the Pleistocene era as a means of adapting to an unpredictable and often cruel climate. This deep-seated desire to do what felt right then impacted how our species transitioned into smaller territories, settled into villages, formed cities, expanded empires, and navigated capitalism. Paradoxically, the predilection to find fair solutions often led to entrenched inequities over ti...
