Rethinking the Struggle for Puerto Rican Rights offers a reexamination of the history of Puerto Ricans’ political and social activism in the United States in the twentieth century. Authors Lorrin Thomas and Aldo A. Lauria Santiago survey the ways in which Puerto Ricans worked within the United States to create communities for themselves and their compatriots in times and places where dark-skinned or ‘foreign’ Americans were often unwelcome. The authors argue that the energetic Puerto Rican rights movement which rose to prominence in the late 1960s was built on a foundation of civil rights activism beginning much earlier in the century. The text contextualizes Puerto Rican activism within the broader context of twentieth-century civil rights movements, while emphasizing the characteristics and goals unique to the Puerto Rican experience. Lucid and insightful, Rethinking the Struggle for Puerto Rican Rights provides a much-needed introduction to a lesser-known but critically important social and political movement.

Introducción Los relatos de viaje son un género complejo que comenzó recién empezada la conquista española de la región. Desafortunadamente, muchas de las descripciones de visitantes a la región de la época colonial permanecen inéditos en archivos. Con la independencia, Centroamérica se (re)convirtió en un destino para exploradores aventureros, arqueólogos, naturistas, misioneros, comerciantes y diplomáticos Europeos. Muy pronto después viajeros y visitantes estadounidenses comenzaron a viajar por la región y con la creación del ferrocarril ístmico en Panamá y la expansión norteamericana en California se consolidó un patrón que continuó hasta la expansión imperial estadounidense en la región a comienzos del siglo XX. Tanto hombres como mujeres describieron las ruinas mayas, los volcanes, las lluvias, y las costumbres locales y medios de transporte de la región. Aunque algunos visitaron sólo un país y en algunos casos sólo un puerto o ciudad, muchos lograron hacer recorridos extensos y proveyeron descripciones tanto útiles como problemáticas. Esta bibliografía incluye descripciones de viajeros a Centroamérica desde el siglo XVII hasta el siglo XX. Incluye, cuando posible, la versión original y las versiones traducidas. En algunos casos hemos incluidos textos que son ambiguos como texto de viajeros y más bien son estudios de segunda mano pero con alguna experiencia personal de trasfondo. La bibliografía está dividida en dos secciones: libros y artículos. La de artículos es más breve dado la mayor dificultad en localizar recuentos de este tipo en revistas cuyo contenido no está incluido en bases de datos contemporáneos. La gran mayoría de estos artículos están disponibles en

D uring the past 20 years, historians have made great strides in studying the engagement of rural communities with the formation of nations and states in nineteenth-century Ladn America. The formation of citizenship , popular liberalism, local pueblo sovereignty, and alternarive nation-alisms and the influence of local struggles on state institutions have all been plotted, from very local communides to regions. However, the recent emphasis on the integration of peasant communities into regional and national history has largely failed to highlight the importance of provincial cities, even as it gives ample evidence of how important they became as bridges between the local, the regional, and the national. In the revisionist literature that incorporates subalterns into the study of the for-madon of nations and states between 1820 and 1880, the critical role of the provincial city in what were often decentralized and contested polides has not
