The baroque state sought -- successfully -- to feed upon this commerce and -- unsuccessfully -- to regulate slavery and racial relations. To illustrate this history, Blackburn examines the deployment of slaves in the colonial possessions of the Portuguese, the Spanish, the Dutch, the English and the French. Plantation slavery is shown to have emerged from the impulses of civil society, not from the strategies of the individual states. Robin Blackburn argues that the organization of slave plantations placed the West on a destructive path to modernity and that greatly preferable alternatives were both proposed and rejected. Finally he shows that the surge of Atlantic trade, predicated on the murderous toil of the plantations, made a decisive contribution to both the Industrial Revolution and the rise of the West." -- Publisher description. 606 $aSlavery$xHistory 606 $aSlavery$zAmerica$xHistory 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory. 615 0$aSlavery$xHistory. 676 $a306.362097 700 $aBlackburn$b Robin$0148164 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248330803316 996 $aThe making of new world slavery$92379027 997 $aUNISA
