Edited by Maria Cristina Martinez-Juan
This Edited Volume explores the British Invasion of Manila and Cavite in 1762, offering a collection of articles that highlight the enduring impact of this historical event on Spanish-ruled Philippines. Based on proceedings from the Annual Philippine Studies Conference at SOAS, University of London, the articles contribute to the historical discourse by focusing on unconventional sources for knowledge production and creating a resource book of primary source material as references for further study. Going beyond methodologies and historical narratives produced by centres of power, the volume expands the Occupation’s geographic influence from Batanes to Sulu, looks into the socioeconomic losses, reversals, and new opportunities leading to and after the invasion, and advances more productive ways of historicising the occupation by centring on issues of local agency and resistance.
