ZEUSKE, Michael. STRUCTURES AND IDENTITY IN THE "SECOND SLAVERY": THE CUBAN CASE, 1800-1940. hist.crit. [online]. 2002, n.24, pp.125-140. ISSN 0121-1617.

The article presents in a abbreviated manner the results of field research on the names proprietors gave to their slaves and the identities of slaves in the process of abolition of slavery in Cuba. In giving slaves only the first surname of one of their last owners and denying them the second surname in legal documents, a process of race-race-marking and race-making began after emancipation, in the period of post-emancipation. The article also presents models of the relations between former slaves, both male and female, and the territories defined by the elites (region, state, etc.) and how former slaves and their children in Cuba participated in politics (war of independence 1895-1898) to define new territories, such as the independent republic of 1902.
