Descrizione In the Shadows of the Tropics
In this original work James Duncan explores the transformation of Ceylon during the mid-nineteenth century into one of the most important coffee growing regions of the world. This fascinating case study reveals the spatial fragmentation of modernity through a focus on modern governmentality and biopower, and offers a welcome non-state dimension to current work on studies of governmentality in geography.
