SOCIO-CULTURAL

Change and Development on 19th
Century
The revolution in the maritime transportation that began
with the emergence of steam powered oceanic travel in the
mid-nineteenth is closely tied to the development and
expansion of colonial port cities, much of which occurred to
facilitate the extraction and export of the products of
plantations in colonial hinterlands by the end of that
century. The modernization of the ports of the Philippines
provides both an example of, and also a model perhaps for
understanding colonial port operations during the late
nineteenth, early twentieth century and even now in the
present.
