These papers explore the history of the tropical regions of the
Atlantic basin, sometimes focused on the Caribbean, sometimes on
Africa, but always with a comparative dimension. The Atlantic basin
is central to most of these comparisons, but they are a part of an
even broader effort to capture the perspective of world history.
Some deal with the shores of the Atlantic in the framework of
economic history, but the author's concern is most particularly
with the role of the environment in history, especially the disease
environment. Disease was particularly important for migrants who
moved from one disease environment to another. In the tropical
Atlantic, disease was a crucial factor in the formation of the
slave trade, affecting both the involuntary passengers and those
who came out from Europe to manage the trade.
