About the Book
Transpacific Peru explores how silver-rich Peruvian merchants defied royal laws to trade Asian goods across Mexico, the Philippines, and China. It uncovers the structural forces behind their expansion and highlights their agency in an early globalized economy.Book Synopsis
Classic studies have highlighted the significance of colonial Peru from a transatlantic and European perspective. Transpacific Peru, 1570-1613 expands this view by exploring its pivotal role in transpacific trade. It examines the agency and networks of peruleros--silver-rich merchants--connecting China, the Philippines, and Mexico. The book exposes the tensions between their expeditions and the prohibitive laws of the Spanish Crown, revealing colonial Peru as a dynamic hub for the expansion of the Spanish Empire and the early globalization of the 16th century.Dimensions (Overall): 9.5 Inches (H) x 6.39 Inches (W) x .78 Inches (D)
