Abstract The impacts of the Spanish Inquisition in Sicily were manifold, affecting politics, business, and society. Those closely associated with the Inquisition could exercise the privilegium fori by having legal issues settled in the tribunal’s court by inquisitorial judges. Waiving this privilege could guarantee to other parties to a contract that their agreement could not be overruled by the tribunal. Waiving the right to the privilegium fori was institutionalized as such a guarantee to individuals contracting business in a society disciplined by different types of justice based on multiple legal systems.

Neima might have supplied more detail about how Dartington Hall’s myriad operations actually functioned in its heyday. Nevertheless, she has provided an important and illuminating study of an institution founded almost a century ago that has had a significant and highly commendable impact on English life.

a draw. The limitation in Dishman’s approach is the absence of much in the way of political or cultural background. He touches briefly on Americans’ aversion to a standing army and to federal taxes as hindrances to the cause, along with the outright refusal of most state militias to cross state borders or the Canadian border. More discussion about these issues, as well as about the Republican–Federalist divide and the economic differences between U.S. states and regions would have helped to establish the context for the fighting at the border. In the same vein, Dishman underserves the Native Americans involved. He mentions them but does not adequately cover their specific connection to the war and the significance of their betrayal by their British allies. In contrast, Dishman’s recurring references to the demands that the Napoleonic wars placed on the British military demonstrate the effectiveness of widening the scope of a significant, though relatively narrow, frame of analysis. The War of 1812 is famously misunderstood and much-maligned, certainly in the U.S. and even more in the European historical literature. This monograph argues persuasively for the importance of long and tenuous supply lines, certainly not a glamorous topic but a useful one for scholars of this period, demonstrating that this war was anything but short, insignificant, or dull.

Abstract The traditional historical analysis of the occupational structure in Spain is flawed, based on incomplete and inaccurate census data; the consequence is an underestimation of women’s work. Census data can be corrected with interdisciplinary methodologies that make use of literature and art, as well as ethnographic, legal, and sociological studies. Applied to Galicia (an agrarian and fishing region in northwest Spain), these methods reveal a more accurate, and significantly higher, estimation of women’s participation in the primary industries (agriculture, retail trade, fishing, and seafood processing) between 1877 and 1930.

aftermath of independence, and the early twentieth century. The second grouping has chapters about the British and U.S. formal and informal empires in Latin America, the role of internal colonialism in shaping those empires, and the changing British views of Latin American revolutions. Its chapters about the Mexican Revolution in comparative global perspective include an interesting and convincing discussion of the similarities between Plutarco Elías Calles and Kemal Atatürk—especially their “Jacobinism,” as Knight calls their particularly vehement revolutionary anticlericalism. The book takes the roles of religion, anticlericalism, and the Catholic Church seriously, much more so than do Knight’s classic volumes on the Mexican Revolution. Yet even though culture, and especially religion and church, is more present in this volume than in Knight’s early output, these essays nonetheless remain fundamentally rooted in the social-science approaches that have consistently shaped his work. Knight’s way of making sense of the “sprawling, shape-shifting thing we call ‘liberalism’” (64), for example, is to identify three “generations” of liberalism across time, the last of which, in the late nineteenth century, splits into three different types—developmental, social, and anarcho. Knight then analyzes these different generational liberalisms from three cross-cutting angles—political economy and class relations, culture (religious and popular), and nationalism. Using these categories as conceptual tools, he produces a compelling comparison of the histories of Latin American liberalism. Every chapter proceeds in a similar way. The goal of identifying and categorizing historical patterns is to reveal complexity, not to emerge with a homogenizing generalization. Most scholars who cover all of Latin America use this process to elucidate complexity and pattern, as well as structure and contingency, but few do so as well as Knight does in this valuable set of essays.
