Explains the roots of the St. Domingo slave revolt and the politics around it. A historical examination of the 1791–1792 insurrection, this work traces the tensions between planters, enslaved people, and colonial authorities. It also presents the debates in the French National Assembly as they wrestled with rights, citizenship, and constitutional power in the colonies.

Juxtaposing accounts from colonial leaders, reformers, and the rising call for liberty, the book asks how oppression and resistance sparked a major upheaval. It examines the influence of legal decrees, the status of people of color, and the shifting loyalties of planter interests on a Caribbean island at the center of a revolutionary era.

Insights into the social and political forces feeding the insurrection

Discussion of key decrees and constitutional arguments of the period

Multiple perspectives from planters, lawmakers, and observers

Context for the wider debates about liberty, equality, and colonial governance

Ideal for readers of history and political philosophy who want to understand early debates about slavery, rights, and state authority in the age of revolutions.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a captivating examination of the 1791 slave revolt in St. Domingo, framing it in the backdrop of the French Revolution and its own far-reaching impact on laws that would shape the future of slavery and freedom across the globe. The author delves into the many complex reasons behind the revolt, challenging long-held assumptions of the time. The book explores how the ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity espoused by the revolution were not initially extended to people of African descent and the ways in which this hypocrisy fueled tensions and contributed to the uprising. This book offers a fresh and comprehensive perspective on this watershed moment in history, shedding light on its continued relevance in ongoing conversations about social justice and equality.
