Zusammenfassung: | As with any enterprise involving violence and lots of money, running a plantation in early British America was a serious and brutal enterprise. In the contentious Planters, Merchants, and Slaves, Burnard argues that white men did not choose to develop and maintain the plantation system out of virulent racism or sadism, but rather out of economic logic because--to speak bluntly--it worked. These economically successful and ethically monstrous plantations required racial divisions to exist, but their successes were measured in gold, rather than skin or blood. Sure to be controversial, this book is a major intervention in the scholarship on slavery, economic development, and political power in early British America, mounting a powerful and original argument that boldly challenges historical orthodoxy. |

Chicago : The University of Chicago Press, 2015. 1 online resource (1 volume) : illustrations, maps text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier American beginnings, 1500-1900 Includes bibliographical references and index. Introduction: plantation worlds -- The rise of the large integrated plantation -- Violence, white solidarity, and the rise of planter elites -- The wealth of the plantations -- "A prodigious mine": Jamaica -- The American revolution and plantation America -- Epilogue: slaves and planters. Print version record. As with any enterprise involving violence and lots of money, running a plantation in early British America was a serious and brutal enterprise. In the contentious Planters, Merchants, and Slaves, Burnard argues that white men did not choose to develop and maintain the plantation system out of virulent racism or sadism, but rather out of economic logic because--to speak bluntly--it worked. These economically successful and ethically monstrous plantations required racial divisions to exist, but their successes were measured in gold, rather than skin or blood. Sure to be controversial, this book is a major intervention in the scholarship on slavery, economic development, and political power in early British America, mounting a powerful and original argument that boldly challenges historical orthodoxy.
