Shaffer examines the Caribbean anarchist networks of the early 1900s and demonstrates how transnational networks of radicals linked the Caribbean with Spain, the US, Mexico, South America, and Central America. He uncovers how these groups challenged local and national elites as well as US political, military, and economic expansion.

Positions Puerto Rico within the context of a regional anarchist network that stretched from the island to Cuba (a U.S. protectorate), Tampa, and New York, and struggled against religion, governments, and industrial capitalism.
