Tropical Leviathan

Slavery, Society, and Security in Jamaica, 1770-1840

Inhalt

Tropical Leviathan examines the political and economic history of the colonial state of Jamaica in the age of revolution and abolition. It analyses the ways in which Jamaica's economy attempted but eventually failed to secure the colonial state against enslaved opposition and explains how this led to near-state bankruptcy and emancipation.
