Abstract
In mainland Latin America, Spanish colonial rule, that had lasted three centuries, ended already in the early 1820s. However, independence did not bring the self-rule of hitherto colonized people but domination by a new elite of American-born Spaniards (Creoles). The contribution discusses major trends and regional variations in Latin America’s internal and continental colonialism in the nineteenth century. Among others, it analyses the contradictions between nation-building, cultural heterogeneity, class cleavages, and the needs of the emergent export-oriented economies. Beyond this, it is argued that processes of continental and internal colonialism were by no means restricted to former overseas colonies such as Latin America, but were present in Europe as well.
