요약
"During the long centuries of Iberian and British imperial rule, the quest for new forms of energy led to the development of the colonial sugar plantation as a uniquely profitable kind of commerce. In a time when issues of race and social justice have arisen with pressing urgency, the book explains how the plantation's extraordinary profitability relied on a production system that literally worked the slaves to death, creating an insatiable appetite for new captives that made the African slave trade a central feature of modern capitalism for over four centuries. After surveying past centuries roiled by imperial wars, national revolutions, and the struggle for human rights, the closing chapters use those hard-won insights to peer through the present and into the future. By rendering often-opaque environmental science in lucid prose, the book explains how climate change and changing world orders will shape the life opportunities for younger generations, born at the start of this century, during the coming decades that will serve as the signposts of their lives -- 2030, 2050, 2070, and beyond." --

책소개

In a tempestuous narrative that sweeps across five continents and seven centuries, this book explains how a succession of catastrophes--from the devastating Black Death of 1350 through the coming climate crisis of 2050--has produced a relentless succession of rising empires and fading world orders.

During the long centuries of Iberian and British imperial rule, the quest for new forms of energy led to the development of the colonial sugar plantation as a uniquely profitable kind of commerce. In a time when issues of race and social justice have arisen with pressing urgency, the book explains how the plantation's extraordinary profitability relied on a production system that literally worked the slaves to death, creating an insatiable appetite for new captives that made the African slave trade a central feature of modern capitalism for over four centuries.

After surveying past centuries roiled by imperial wars, national revolutions, and the struggle for human rights, the closing chapters use those hard-won insights to peer through the present and into the future. By rendering often-opaque environmental science in lucid prose, the book explains how climate change and changing world orders will shape the life opportunities for younger generations, born at the start of this century, during the coming decades that will serve as the signposts of their lives--2030, 2050, 2070, and beyond.

저자소개

앨프리드 맥코이(지은이)

위스콘신대학 매디슨캠퍼스 역사학 석좌교수. 그는 1977년 예일대학에서 역사학 박사 학위를 받은 뒤 ‘현대 필리핀의 등장’, ‘비밀작전의 지하세계’, ‘현대 제국의 역사’ 등 세 가지 주요 주제를 연구했다. 그의 첫 번째 책인 『동남아시아 헤로인의 정치학The Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia』(1972)은 CIA의 출판 금지 시도로 논란을 불러일으켰다. 오늘날 전 세계 마약 밀매 연구의 고전으로 간주되는 이 책은 50년 가까이 계속 출간되고 있으며, 아홉 개 언어로 번역되었다. 그의 또 다른 주저인 『고문의 문제: CIA 심문, 냉전 시대부터 테러와의 전쟁까지A Question of Torture: CIA Interrogation, from the Cold War to the War on Terror』(2006)는 2008년 오스카상 다큐멘터리 부문을 수상한 영화 〈택시 투 더 다크 사이드 Taxi to the Dark Side〉의 기초가 되었다. 『미국제국의 치안 제도: 미국, 필리핀, 그리고 감시국가의 부상Policing America’s Empire: The United States, the Philippines, and the Rise of the Surveillance State』(2009)은 미국 안보기구의 기초가 된 필리핀 경찰 조직, 사찰, 그리고 스캔들을 밝힌 공로로 아시아연구협회의 조지 카힌상을 수상했다. 2012년 예일대학은 “세계적 동남아시아사 연구자로서 필리핀 정치사와 골든트라이앵글의 아편 밀매를 연구하고, 지하세계 범죄에 연루된 현대 정치를 감시해온 역할”을 기려 그에게 윌버 크로스 메달을 수여했다.
