Recenzii
"In this myth-busting classic on the formation of the Colombian nation, Alfonso Múnera brilliantly decenters traditional understandings of the archive by viewing it from the perspective of the country’s Caribbean region. Far from being the straightforward realisation of an "imagined community", Múnera argues that nation-building in Colombia was a deeply-fractured process in which the interests of the region’s elites played a crucial role, alongside the vital but oft-neglected influence of the subaltern classes, the artisans and mulatos of Cartagena. This English translation now makes an influential text accessible to an even wider audience."
Peter Wade, University of Manchester
"What a pleasure to see the long-overdue translation of this classic work of Latin American and Atlantic history. Alfonso Múnera has been one of the leading voices in promoting the inclusion of Black agency and actors in the region’s history. English-speaking audiences now have access to his pathbreaking research and to his lucid and compelling storytelling."

Notă biografică
Alfonso Múnera is a historian, researcher, lecturer, and former ambassador. Born in Cartagena in 1953, Múnera earned a law degree from the University of Cartagena in 1981 and an MA and PhD in Latin American studies and US history from the University of Connecticut in 1995. In 1981, he began teaching at the University of Cartagena, where he served as vice rector of research (2007–2010) and founded the International Institute for Caribbean Studies in 2005. Múnera has been a visiting professor in Spain and the United States at institutions such as Pablo de Olavide University (1999), the University of Wisconsin (2003–2004), and the University of Seville (2006). Múnera is one of Latin America's most recognized and respected historians and in 2010, was named as one of 12 renowned Afro-Colombians. His critique of the construction of the Colombian nation and the processes of independence, and his criticism of official history make him an outstanding researcher.
