TSA released a statement on the decision at the request of the US-Cuba Trade and Economic Council. TSA explained that In-Flight Security Officers (IFSOs), also known as federal air marshals, play a crucial role in aviation security. The agency plans to continue to work with Cuba to expand the presence of IFSOs on flights to and from Cuba. “This agreement will strengthen both parties' aviation security efforts by furnishing a security presence on board certain passenger flights between the United States and The Republic of Cuba,” TSA said in the statement, adding, “IFSOs serve as an active last line of defense against terrorism and air piracy, and are an important part of a multi- layer strategy adopted by the US to thwart terrorism in the civil aviation sector.” Commenting on the announcement, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), Chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, warned that despite the presence of federal air marshals on flights between the two countries, Americans traveling to Cuba remain at risk.

  • The Colonial Amazon and the Shaping of the New World by Rodrigo
    One World is not Enough: The Colonial Amazon and the Shaping of the New World by Rodrigo D. Toromoreno A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Romance Languages and Literatures: Spanish) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Gustavo Verdesio, Chair Professor Enrique García Santo-Tomás Professor Eduardo Góes Neves, Universidade de São Paulo Professor Jean M. Hébrard, l'École des Hautes Études en Sciences sociales Assistant Professor Daniel J. Nemser © 2015 Rodrigo D. Toromoreno Dedication To Lucía and the women who have shaped my world. ii Acknowledgements If it were merely a question of thanking those who were directly involved in the production of this dissertation, that list would not accurately reflect the collaborations from which the work has benefited. Like the colonial texts I examine, this project was not written in a vacuum. It is the result of years of conversations and encounters, sometimes born out of chance, that have moulded the ideas therein. I would like to begin by thanking the director of my dissertation, Gustavo Verdesio, not only for the indefatigable patience with which he has guided the project from its inception to its completion, but for his willingness and ability to read its content at those stages when the dissertation seemed to be devoid of any. To his lively discussions and perceptive suggestions I attribute the most developed aspects of the project, as these sections have come to be this way from the inquisitive approach to colonial literature that he has championed. My gratitude extends to Enrique García Santo-Tomás for the sincerity of his comments and above all for the consideration with which he expressed these.
