Abstract

In this discussion on 18th century Spanish America, Ruth Hill argues for a richer, more nuanced understanding of the relationship between Spain and its western colonies, then crafts a complex argument for reassessing our understanding of race and class distinctions at the time, with enormous implications for how we view conceptions of race and class today.
