DESCRIPTION:This week\, our fellow Justin Roberts is looking forward to a 
 lively discussion of and feedback on his project “Fragile Empire: Slaver
 y in the Early English Tropics\, 1645-1720.” \n\nAs a framework\, the gl
 obal tropics offers us a new way of thinking about the origins of slavery 
 in the English empire. The English took advantage of a wide variety of bon
 dage systems to support their commercial and territorial expansion in the 
 global tropics. By the 1680s\, one variant of racial slavery had outcompet
 ed other forms of bondage within the empire. It was marked by its permanen
 ce\, its heritability\, its impermeable boundaries\, and its distinct brut
 ality. It was associated with the tropical zone. The dominance of this gen
 us of bondage shaped the ongoing threats of insurrection and invasion in E
 ngland’s expanding tropical empire.
