Raza, inmigración blanca y discursos científicos en la sociedad colonial cubana finisecular entre 1878 y 1898 Oliva Hernández, Dayron Raza Blanqueamiento Ciencia Sociedad colonial cubana The objective of this article is to analyse the racial configuration acquired by the process of colonial modernization experienced by Cuban society in the fin-de-siecle period between 1878 and 1898, taking into account the effects of the reforms to the colonial administration system and of the white immigration projects implemented after the end of the first war of independence in 1878. Through a historiographical reconstruction and the analysis of bibliographic and documentary collections, we will examine, on the one hand, the adoption of white Hispanic-Canarian immigration projects as an element of economic development and territorial settlement and, on the other hand, the debates on race and "ethnic crossbreeding" in the scientific-health discourse of Cuban scientific associations. El presente artículo tiene el objetivo de analizar la configuración racial que adquiere el proceso de modernización colonial que se experimentó en la sociedad cubana en el periodo finisecular que comprende los años entre 1878 y 1898, teniendo en cuenta los efectos de las reformas al sistema de administración colonial y de los proyectos de inmigración blanca que se implementaron después del fin de la primera guerra independentista en 1878. A través de una reconstrucción historiográfica, y el análisis de fondos bibliográficos y documentales, se examinarán la adopción de proyectos de inmigración blanca hispano-canaria como elemento de desarrollo económico y de poblamiento territorial y los debates sobre raza y “cruzamientos étnicos” del discurso científico-sanitario del asociacionismo científico cubano.
