Spanish colonialism exacted a high price from its subjects, promoting economic dependency as the accompaniment of a more vital, diversified economy based on a mix of industry and agriculture. The result was a legacy of underdevelopment, domestic social inequities, and economic subordination to the North Atlantic world. This volume examines how Spanish colonial policies contributed to profound socioeconomic changes, leading to patterns of underdevelopment in the Kingdom of Quito (modern Ecuador) from 1690 to 1830.

This volume elucidates Bourbon colonial policy with emphasis on Madrid's efforts to reform and modernize its American holdings. Set in an Atlantic world context, the book highlights the interplay between Spain and America as the Spanish empire struggled for survival amid the fierce international competition that dominated the eighteenth century. The authors use extensive research in the repositories of Spain and America, as well as innovative consultation of the French Foreign Affairs archive, to bring into focus the poorly understood reformist efforts of the early Bourbons, which laid the foundation for the better-known agenda of Charles III. As the book unfolds, the narrative puts flesh on the men and women who, for better or worse, influenced colonial governance. It is the story of power, ambition and idealism at the highest levels.

El atlántico español durante el siglo XVIII destaca el juego entre España y América mientras el imperio español luchaba por sobrevivir en la feroz competencia internacional que dominó el siglo dieciocho. Los autores usan una amplia y profunda investigación en los repositorios de España y América, así como la innovadora consulta de los archivos del Ministerio Francés de Asuntos Extranjeros, para enfocar los esfuerzos reformistas de los primeros borbones que culminaron en la más conocida agenda de Carlos III. A medida que la narrativa avanza, salen a relucir las personalidades de hombres y mujeres que influyeron en el gobierno colonial. Es la historia de poder, ambición e idealismo a los niveles más altos. “Estupendo análisis de cómo las reformas imperiales se desplegaron cuando la monarquía española competía con sus rivales en Europa y, a través del Atlántico al Nuevo Mundo, transformaron a España de una monarquía compuesta a una monarquía centralista y regalista”. Kendall W. Brown, Brigham Young University “Magistral análisis de las políticas imperiales españolas desde el fin de la Guerra de Sucesión hasta el inicio de las dilatadas hostilidades anglo-españolas en los años de la década de 1790 a 1800. Lectura indispensable para aquellos que aspiran a comprender los objetivos, la periodización, la implementación y las consecuencias de las reformas borbónica en España y América española”. John Fisher, profesor emérito de historia de Latinoamérica, Universidad de Liverpool
