6 One might see these different registers, in theoretical terms, in relation to three important books by James C. Scott, Weapons of the Weak: Everyday Forms of Peasant Resistance (New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1987); Domination and the Arts of Resistance: Hidden Transcripts (New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1992); and Seeing Like a State: How Certain Schemes to Improve the Human Condition Have Failed (New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1999). One might also suggest that the concept of settler colonialism has emerged as the most important synthetic organizing principle of the last decade, with a substantial historiography too large to consider here.

12 I'm thinking, for example, of the essays collected in the landmark collection edited by Amy Kaplan and Donald Pease, Cultures of United States Imperialism (Durham: Duke University Press, 1994), in which Richard Slotkin—almost singly—takes on the burden of connecting the continental and the offshore. In historiographic terms, it is worth noting the earlier connections made by Williams, Walter L., “United States Indian Policy and the Debate over Philippine Annexation: Implications for the Origins of American Imperialism,” Journal of American History 66:4 (Mar. 1980): 810–31CrossRefGoogle Scholar.
