In his book, Ruling Emancipated Slaves and Indigenous Subjects, Olukunle P. Owolabi delves into the divergent developmental paths of Global South nations that were shaped by forced settlement, where European colonists imported African slaves to establish large-scale agricultural plantations, or by colonial occupation, which resulted in the exploitation of indigenous non-white populations. Owolabi demonstrates that most forced settlement colonies emerged from European dominance with higher levels of education attainment, greater postcolonial democratization, and favorable human development outcomes compared to Global South countries that emerged from colonial occupation after 1945. To explain this paradox, he examines the distinctive legal-administrative institutions used to control indigenous colonial subjects and highlights the impact of liberal reforms that expanded the legal rights and political agency of former slaves following abolition. Spanning three centuries of colonial history and postcolonial development, this is the first book to systematically examine the unique patterns of state-building that resulted from forced settlement and colonial occupation in the Black Atlantic world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe European powers that colonized vast regions of the world over the last few hundred years established a diverse range of social systems in their various colonies.
