"Colonial Debts develops the concept of neoliberal coloniality in light of the debt crisis in contemporary Puerto Rico. Debt functions as a form of coloniality, actualizing a race/gender/class hierarchy that marks populations as dispensable. Drawing from decolonial thought and praxis, Colonial Debts traces the relation distinctive of the case of Puerto Rico between colonialism, the juridical-political status of an unincorporated territory, and coloniality, the operation of race/gender as the central technology in the development and resilience of capitalism"-- Provided by publisher.
