(Modern scholarship on the relationship between British ca...)
Modern scholarship on the relationship between British capitalism and Caribbean slavery has been profoundly influenced by Eric Williams's 1944 classic, Capitalism and Slavery. The present volume represents the proceedings of a conference on Caribbean Slavery and British Capitalism convened in his honour in 1984, and includes essays on Dr Williams's scholarly work and influence. These essays, by thirteen scholars from the United States, England, Africa, Canada and the Caribbean, explore the relationship between Great Britain and her plantation slave colonies in the Caribbean.

(Economic analysis of slavery and emancipation with histor...)
Economic analysis of slavery and emancipation with historic background. A sweeping re-examination of the economic foundations of American Negro slavery, it challenges virtually every traditional assumption that has been made about the material condition of the southern slave, about their management, their work habits, their domestic welfare, and about the economy of the ante-bellum South in general. Volume 2 contains all source references together with comprehensive appendixes that discuss in detail the technical, methodoligical, and theoretical bases for the writing of TIME ON THE CROSS.

My major research interests have been in the development of alternative forms of labour organisation, most particularly the nature of slave economies. In various works, some joint (most frequently with R. W. Fogel), some alone, I have examined the economic aspects of slavery and of the adjustments to the end of slavery in the United States and in the Caribbean. Related to this focus on labour are the studies (joint with Fogel and others) on the relationship of nutrition, height and productivity and (joint with H. S. Klein) on mortality in the transatlantic slave trade.
