Resumen
MENDOZA, Breny. Colonial Connections. Tabula Rasa [online]. 2021, n.38, pp.49-59. Epub 03-Nov-2021. ISSN 1794-2489. https://doi.org/10.25058/20112742.n38.03.
This article addresses succinctly four topics showing how three empires (the Chinese, Spanish, and British) and the distinct processes of Iberian and British colonizations became entangled in history. Drawing from Shu-mei Shih’s relational comparison, we analyse briefly the following issues: (1) anti-Eurocentric revisionist history that often includes Asia but excludes Abya Yala from world history; (2) the exclusion of Iberian empires from the conventional narratives of empires and modern world history, including postcolonial literary theories; (3) the artificial separation of the Iberian and British empires and their colonies in the so-called New World; and (4) the coloniality of democracy or the expulsion of the colonized from the polity.
