This is a sourcebook on the "revolutionary Atlantic," a term historians increasingly use to describe the way the many revolutions from 1776 (USA) to 1826 (end of the wars of independence in Latin America) can be viewed as part of a connected whole. It is the first text to examine the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, and the various Latin American Revolutions from a synoptic perspective.

"The Revolutionary Atlantic" examines how women connected to transatlantic commerce maneuvered within and were shaped by the Haitian Revolution and the inter-imperial wars of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It argues that revolutionary tumult in Saint Domingue provided an opening for businesswomen to acquire and expand their commercial authority in local and Atlantic markets. Women of color were important economic players in Saint Domingue with networks that stretched horizontally and vertically to encompass laundresses and couturières as well as prominent merchants and political and military figureheads. In the post-revolutionary landscape, some of these women resettled in the United States, St. Thomas, France, and elsewhere. Businesswomen of color who fled independent Haiti to the United States faced local resistance to their economic authority. Women drew on their far-reaching financial and affective ties they forged during the Haitian Revolution to resist the hardening of racial and gender lines in places like Philadelphia, Pennsylvania after 1804.

Winner of the International Labor History Award Long before the American Revolution and the Declaration of the Rights of Man, a motley crew of sailors, slaves, pirates, laborers, market women, and indentured servants had ideas about freedom and equality that would forever change history. The Many Headed-Hydra recounts their stories in a sweeping history of the role of the dispossessed in the making of the modern world. When an unprecedented expansion of trade and colonization in the early seventeenth century launched the first global economy, a vast, diverse, and landless workforce was born. These workers crossed national, ethnic, and racial boundaries, as they circulated around the Atlantic world on trade ships and slave ships, from England to Virginia, from Africa to Barbados, and from the Americas back to Europe. Marshaling an impressive range of original research from archives in the Americas and Europe, the authors show how ordinary working people led dozens of rebellions on both sides of the North Atlantic. The rulers of the day called the multiethnic rebels a 'hydra' and brutally suppressed their risings, yet some of their ideas fueled the age of revolution. Others, hidden from history and recovered here, have much to teach us about our common humanity.

This book, as the first volume of a multiple volume endeavor to analyze several revolutions of the “long” nineteenth and “short” twentieth century to show how revolutionary processes evolved, takes a closer look at the Atlantic Revolutions, that is, the American, the French, and the Haitian Revolution. It will therefore use a comparative ten-step model to emphasize similarities with regard to the revolutionary developments in different parts of the world. The book consequently aims at providing a general, but deeper, understanding of revolutions as a global phenomenon of modernity while explaining how revolutionary processes evolve and develop, and how they could and can be corrupted.

Here for perhaps the first time in a single volume, the French revolution is discussed not simply as the event of vast importance within the history of France, but as a part of a wide-ranging social, cultural, and philosophical change. The Atlantic Revolution emerges in this volume as a world transforming phenomenon, whose origins, development, and unifying principles have been until now only partially understood. In this new study, Professor Godechot, the distinguished French historian, finds it impossible adequately to review the French revolution without also considering the other uprisings that disrupted the world in the late eighteenth century: the American revolution; the English and Irish disturbances of the 1780's; the Belgian, Swiss and Polish revolts in the late 1780's and early 1790's; and the upheavals in Holland, Switzerland, Italy, and Belgium that accompanied the French Revolution. Professor Godechot addresses himself to locating and analyzing the basic and common causes of these widespread and apparently distinct rebellions. In this treatment of this general question, Professor Godechot recognizes the role of the massive increase in population at the end of the eighteenth century and the economic crisis that this demographic movement sparkled. Additional fuel was supplied by the intellectual and political harvest of the Enlightenment: the growing struggle between the old aristocracies attached to traditional forms of government and the "enlightened" soverigns wishing to refurbish their states, leading to appeals by both groups for the aid and loyalty of the masses to help accomplish their divergent aims. According to Professor Godechot, the Atlantic Ocean was the single most significant element uniting the revolutionary forces on both of its shores. Across this much-sailed body of water men, money, and ideas moved far more rapidly than they ever had on land and meshed every Atlantic nation into a great revolutionary movement that sought to replace the old regime by a new.
