As the British, French and Spanish Atlantic empires were torn apart
in the Age of Revolutions, Portugal steadily pursued reforms to tie
its American, African and European territories more closely
together. Eventually, after a period of revival and prosperity, the
Luso-Brazilian world also succumbed to revolution, which ultimately
resulted in Brazil's independence from Portugal. The first of its
kind in the English language to examine the Portuguese Atlantic
World in the period from 1750 to 1850, this book reveals that
despite formal separation, the links and relationships that
survived the demise of empire entwined the historical trajectories
of Portugal and Brazil even more tightly than before. From
constitutionalism to economic policy to the problem of slavery,
Portuguese and Brazilian statesmen and political writers laboured
under the long shadow of empire as they sought to begin anew and
forge stable post-imperial orders on both sides of the Atlantic.
