Master and servant acts, the cornerstone of English employment law
for more than four hundred years, gave largely unsupervised,
inferior magistrates wide discretion over employment relations,
including the power to whip, fine, and imprison men, women, and
children for breach of private contracts with their employers. The
English model was adopted, modified, and reinvented in more than a
thousand colonial statutes and ordinances regulating the
recruitment, retention, and discipline of workers in shops, mines,
and factories; on farms, in forests, and on plantations; and at
sea. This collection presents the first integrated comparative
account of employment law, its enforcement, and its importance
throughout the British Empire. Sweeping in its geographic and
temporal scope, this volume tests the relationship between enacted
law and enforced law in varied settings, with different social and
racial structures, different economies, and different
constitutional relationships to Britain. Investigations of the
enforcement of master and servant law in England, the British
Caribbean, India, Africa, Hong Kong, Canada, Australia, and
colonial America shed new light on the nature of law and legal
institutions, the role of inferior courts in compelling
performance, and the definition of ""free labor"" within a
multiracial empire. Contributors: David M. Anderson, St. Antony's
