This book explores a critical period of development for the English-speaking world, particularly the United States, as they navigate their relationship with tropical regions. The author argues that the prevailing ideas and policies toward tropical governance are inadequate and unsustainable. The book traces the history of European expansion and exploitation in the tropics, highlighting the failures of the plantation system and the challenges of acclimatization. It also examines the political and economic consequences of these policies, including the rise of colonialism and the ongoing struggle for control of tropical resources. The author proposes a new approach to tropical governance, one that recognizes the unique challenges and opportunities of these regions and that prioritizes the well-being of their inhabitants.
