【摘要】："蔗糖革命"指的是发生于17世纪加勒比地区的一连串为大西洋世界带来深远影响的历史事件,英属巴巴多斯是最先经历这一革命性变化的地区。"蔗糖革命"前,巴巴多斯社会的主要特征是小土地所有者们在一些白人契约佣工的帮助下种植烟草和其它作物。然而随着甘蔗成为英属巴巴多斯的主要作物,曾经拥有该岛大部分土地的小农们,逐渐被几百个可以买得起机器和设备的种植园主们所代替,于是作物生产方式由小农地生产逐渐转变为大种植园生产,劳动力结构也从白人契约佣工渐渐变为黑人奴隶为主。"蔗糖革命"后的巴巴多斯社会与早期殖民者们在此建立的社会已经完全不同。
[Abstract]:The "sugar revolution" refers to a series of historic events that have had a profound impact on the Atlantic world in the 17th century Caribbean, and British Barbados was the first region to experience this revolutionary change. " Before the Sugar Revolution, the main feature of Barbados society was that small landowners grew tobacco and other crops with the help of white indentured domestic workers. However, as sugar cane became the staple crop in British Barbados, smallholders, who once owned most of the island's land, were gradually replaced by hundreds of planters who could afford to buy machinery and equipment. As a result, the production of crops gradually changed from small farm production to large plantation production, and the labor structure gradually changed from white indentured domestic workers to black slaves. " The society of Barbados after the sucrose revolution was completely different from the society established here by the early colonists.
