Summary
"Throughout the nineteenth century, aided by railroads and steam technologies, industrial plantations expanded their footprint into ever new territories across Latin America. The timing was unique: it occurred right as enslavement, the foundation of these enterprises, was being subjected to unprecedented challenges-- from proliferating slave insurgencies to vocal liberal-abolitionist mobilization. But along industrial plantations' margins, vast and socially vibrant free rural communities of African descent made homes for themselves against many odds. Unearthing their worlds sheds light on a distinct history of emancipation that did not fully align with liberalism's trajectory"--
