This book looks at the millions of workers who were needed to operate the ships, ports, storehouses, forts and factories crucial to local and global exchange. These sailors, soldiers, craftsmen and slaves were crucial to globalization but were also confronted with the process of globalization themselves. They were often migrants who worked, directly or indirectly, for trading companies, merchants and producers that tried to discipline and control their labour force. The contributors to this v. offer an integrated, thematic study of the global history of desertion in European, Atlantic and Asian contexts. By tracing and comparing acts and patterns of desertion across empires, economic systems, regions and types of workers, Desertion in the Early Modern World illuminates the crucial role of practices of desertion among workers in shaping the history of imperial and economic expansion in the early modern period."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Desertion, MilitaryHistoryMilitary desertersHistoryGeneral & world historyDesertion, MilitaryHistory.Military desertersHistory.355.1/334Kamp Jeannet van de1957-Rossum Matthias van1984-UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910797936303321Desertion in the early modern world3792059UNINA
