  • History of the Caribbean
    History of the Caribbean The history of the Caribbean reveals the significant role the region played in the colonial struggles of the European powers since the 15th century. In 1492, Christopher Columbus landed in the Caribbean and claimed the region for Spain. The following year, the first Spanish settlements were established in the Caribbean. Although the Spanish conquests of the Aztec empire and the Inca empire in the early sixteenth century made Mexico and Peru more desirable places for Spanish exploration and settlement, the Caribbean remained strategically important. Political evolution of Central America and the Caribbean from 1700 to present Contemporary political map of the Caribbean From the 1620s and 1630s onwards, non- Hispanic privateers, traders, and settlers established permanent colonies and trading posts on the Caribbean islands neglected by Spain. Such colonies spread throughout the Caribbean, from the Bahamas in the North West to Tobago in the South East. Furthermore, during this period, French and English buccaneers settled on the island of Tortuga, the northern and western coasts of Hispaniola (Haiti and Dominican Republic), and later in Jamaica. After the Spanish American war in the late 19th century, the islands of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines were no longer part of the Spanish Empire in the New World. In the 20th century the Caribbean was again important during World War II, in the decolonization wave after the war, and in the tension between Communist Cuba and the United States. Genocide, slavery, immigration, and rivalry between world powers have given Caribbean history an impact disproportionate to its size.

  • Piracy in the Early Modern Atlantic World As a Common Topic for Inquiry
    HIS 200 Gateway Seminar: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN Spring 2019 Prof. Michael Jarvis Tu Th 12:30-1:45 Office: Rush Rhees 455 Rush Rhees 456 Phone: 275-4558 Office Hours: Wed. 1 pm-3 pm or by appt. [email protected] Overview: This gateway research seminar introduces history majors to historical research, debate, and writing using piracy in the early modern Atlantic world as a common topic for inquiry. Over the semester, students will learn about history as an academic discipline and how to study history at a college level. You will master the skills of 1) defining and developing a research topic, 2) critically evaluating existing historical scholarship, 3) understanding different historians’ theoretical and methodological approaches, 4) identifying, evaluating and interpreting relevant primary and secondary sources (including non-documentary evidence), 5) considering perspective and bias present in historical evidence and scholarship, and 6) constructing historical arguments and explanations orally and in written work. By the end of the semester, each student will write a well-crafted 3,000-word (10- to 12-page) research paper that explores some aspect of early modern piracy, following standard conventions for historical writing. The skills you learn in this seminar will provide a firm foundation to build upon in the subsequent courses you take here at the University of Rochester and especially ready you to take HIS 200- and 300-level W seminars. Organization: This course initiates an open-ended conversation about history, what historians do, and how they do it. It introduces history as a continuing debate between scholarly interpreters, rather than as a set and stable script about what happened in the past.

It reflects the latest thinking of naval forces concerning stability operations and is influenced by Joint Publication 3-07, Stability Operations, and Army Field Manual 3-07, Stability Operations. The purpose of this publication is to highlight the unique aspects of stability operations in the maritime domain that must be addressed by the joint force commander and his planning staff. Its intent is to educate the broader elements of the joint force and other agencies on the role that naval forces play within Government solutions to stability operations. This publication satisfies the Department of Defense policy requirement to promulgate Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard doctrine for stability operations. It expands on doctrine contained in joint and Army publications on stability operations and emphasizes maritime planning considerations.

Ishikawa ii Abstract Maritime piracy varies from place to place and from age to age. This thesis aims to explain the variation of piracy across time and space by exploring the capability of establishing maritime governance against piracy. The spatial variation in the number of piratical attacks is explained by calculating the state capacity for governing the surrounding seas called Sea Power Index. The thesis argues that pirates particularly target waters near a state with “medium” levels of sea power because such states are not capable of enforcing strict regulations on piracy but can provide enough infrastructure and economy for pirates to have a profitable “business.” The variation in the frequency of piratical attacks across time is determined by the capability of the hegemonic powers in that time period.

  • Archaeology of Piracy Between Caribbean Sea and the North American Coast of 17Th and 18Th Centuries: Shipwrecks, Material Culture and Terrestrial Perspectives
    Journal of Caribbean Archaeology Copyright 2019 ISBN 1524-4776 ARCHAEOLOGY OF PIRACY BETWEEN CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE NORTH AMERICAN COAST OF 17TH AND 18TH CENTURIES: SHIPWRECKS, MATERIAL CULTURE AND TERRESTRIAL PERSPECTIVES Jean Soulat Laboratoire LandArc – Centre Michel de Boüard, Craham UMR 6273 Groupe de Recherche en Archéométrie, Université Laval, Québec 29, rue de Courbuisson 77920 Samois-sur-Seine – France [email protected] John de Bry Center for Historical Archaeology 140 Warsteiner Way, Suite 204 Melbourne Beach, Florida 32951 – USA [email protected] The archaeology of piracy in the 17th and 18th centuries remains a poorly developed discipline in the world. American universities in connection with local authorities were the first to fund and support such research programs on the east coast of the United States and the Caribbean. The study of the shipwreck of the pirate Edward Teach (Blackbeard), the Queen Anne's Revenge 1718, is a very good example of this success. However, a work of crossing archaeological data deserves to be carried out for all the sites brought to light, in particular in the Caribbean area, on the North American coast, without forgetting the Indian Ocean. The synthetic work of Charles R. Ewen and Russell K. Skowronek published in 2006 and 2016 by the University of Florida is an important first step. They treat shipwrecks as well as land occupations, and go back for a long time on the percceived ideas related to the true image of Pirates. However, there is a lack of material culture studies from these sites probably related to the lack of scientific publications of these objects.
