| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - "In 1904, renowned architect Daniel Burnham, the Progressive Era urban planner who famously exhorted "make no little plans," set off for the Philippines, a new US colonial acquisition. Charged with designing environments for the occupation government, Burnham sought to convey the ambitions and the dominance of the regime, drawing on neoclassical formalism for the Pacific colony. The spaces he created, most notably in the summer capital of Baguio, gave physical form to American rule and its contradictions.
In American Imperial Pastoral, Rebecca Tinio McKenna examines the design, construction, and use of Baguio, making visible the physical shape, labor, and sustaining practices of the United States' new empire--especially the dispossessions that underwrote market expansion. In the process, she demonstrates how colonialists conducted market making through state building and vice versa. Where much has been made of the racial dynamics of US colonialism in the region, McKenna emphasizes capitalist practices and design ideals, giving us a fresh and nuanced understanding of the American occupation of the Philippines."
