The Seven Years’ War in West Africa
The Seven Years’ War in West Africa was a minor sideshow in a globe-spanning military conflict. Only French and British forces fought in Africa, confining their armed battle to the French-ruled island of Saint-Louis at the mouth of the Senegal River and Gorée Island, both of which the British occupied in 1758–1759. This chapter explores the immediate and long-term impacts of this conflict on the French and British colonial empires and African and…
Colonialism and Abolitionism from the Margins of European Empires
Bottom-up attempts at agroecological transitions in China
Smallholder farmers have practiced sustainable agriculture for thousands of years in China. Numerous smallholder farming systems remain, but most have shifted to industrial production. There is growing interest in agroecological transitions for smallholder farmers, but more attention needs to be paid to the challenges that may be encountered in the process. We conducted qualitative research in Sanliwan village in Shanxi Province because it repres…
Emulating Empires
When the Dutch West Indies Company (WIC) established the free port of Willemstad, Curaçao after 1674, they launched a model for economic competition that other European empires would emulate. Within a century, the Danish, Spanish, British, and French all established their own Caribbean free ports. Emulation, however, was not replication. This article argues that while the expansion of free ports into different Caribbean empires generated similar …
From islands to territorial empire
This article explores the relationship between islands and the continental shore through the lens of the French colonial administration at Gorée after the Seven Years War. In this period, the French Ministry of the Marine deliberately sought to check French territorial expansion across the globe in order to favor France’s lucrative plantation complex in the Caribbean. As part of this official policy, Gorée was deemed critical for the protection o…
Hommage à Marcel Dorigny
The first time I met Marcel Dorigny was in early 2007. I had just moved to Paris to begin a year of research for my doctoral dissertation and had been offered the opportunity to present my work on the colonial ideas of the French Physiocrats at a journée d’étude at Université Paris 8. After my presentation, during a break in the program, a man in his late fifties walked up to me to introduce himself. I knew instantly who this person was. I recogn…

Community seed network in an era of climate change
Local seed systems remain the fundamental source of seeds for many crops in developing countries. Climate resilience for small holder farmers continues to depend largely on locally available seeds of traditional crop varieties. High rainfall events can have as significant an impact on crop production as increased temperatures and drought. This article analyzes the dynamics of maize diversity over 3 years in a farming community of Yucatán state, M…
Provincializing Global History
In recent decades, the question of why Europe was able to embark on sustained growth in the late eighteenth century and spearhead nineteenth-century economic globalisation has been decidedly global in scope. Studies of the Great Divergence include numerous comparative studies of China, Britain and north-western Europe and their political institutions, scientific cultures and access to natural resources, labour and capital. In this book, James Liv…
The Directory and the Future of France's Colonial Possessions in Africa, 1795–1802
This article examines how French revolutionaries envisioned a republican imperial future in Africa between the decreed abolition of slavery and its restoration under Napoléon. Drawing on proposals within the Ministry of the Marine and the Colonies and analyzing French activities in the Senegambian holdings of Saint-Louis and Gorée, the author argues that, although the French Revolution included numerous creative imperial processes vis-à-vis Afric…
Economistes and the Reinvention of Empire
Exploring the myriad efforts to strengthen colonial empire that unfolded in response to France's imperial crisis in the second half of the eighteenth century, Pernille Røge examines how political economists, colonial administrators, planters, and entrepreneurs shaped the recalibration of empire in the Americas and in Africa alongside the intensification of the French Caribbean plantation complex. Emphasising the intellectual contributions of the …
Free and Unfree Labor in Atlantic and Indian Ocean Port Cities (Seventeenth-Nineteenth Centuries)
Colonial and postcolonial port cities in the Atlantic and Indian Ocean regions functioned as crucial hubs in the commodity flows that accompanied the emergence and expansion of global capitalism. They did so by bringing together laboring populations of many different backgrounds and statuses - legally free or semi-free wage laborers, soldiers, sailors, and the self-employed, indentured servants, convicts, and slaves. Focusing on the period from t…
Rethinking Africa in the Age of Revolution
In the Age of Revolution, the idea that Europe should help a “savage” Africa attain civilization through colonization was on the rise. When explaining how such views came about, scholars have looked at the ways in which the production and reception of travel literature and natural histories of Africa shaped, and were shaped by, evolving ideas of race in eighteenth-century Europe. Though insightful, these studies ignore the impact of the encounter…

Why the Danes Got There First – A Trans-Imperial Study of the Abolition of the Danish Slave Trade in 1792
This article explores the causes and timing of the abolition of the Danish slave trade in 1792. While the existing historiography highlights economic and humanitarian considerations behind the decision to decree abolition of the slave trade and situates such concerns within a Danish context, this article looks at ways in which trans-imperial influences on the Danish government and commercial ties between the Danish colonial empire and other slave…
La clef de commerce’—The changing role of Africa in France's Atlantic empire ca. 1760–1797
Scholarship on the French Atlantic empire traditionally and uniquely focuses upon Africa as a source of slave labour for the American colonies. However, this article explores how, in the second half of the eighteenth century, Africa emerged as a viable alternative for colonial expansion. Uncertainties about a colonial future in the New World directed French expansionist attention away from the Americas and towards the African continent, expanding…
