2 Overview Mid-18th c. renewal of European warfare: Austria vs. Prussia over dominance of central Europe Great Britain vs. France for commercial & colonial supremacy Outcomes: Prussia emerges as great power, Great Britain gains world empire Peace results in restructuring of taxation & finance, leading in turn to: American Revolution Continental enlightened absolutism Continuing French financial crisis Reform of Spanish South American empire

Mercantile empires & great power trade rivalries; slavery; colonial independence to 1820s 19th-c. empires in Africa & Asia Decolonization, mid- to late-20th c. Source of European world domination: technology (ships & guns)

6 Mercantile Empires, Early 18th c. Boundaries Set by 1713 Treaty of Utrecht Spain: South America except for Brazil; Florida, Mexico, California & N. American Southwest; Central America; Caribbean possessions Britain: N. Atlantic seaboard, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland; Caribbean possessions; trading posts on Indian subcontinent France: St. Lawrence, Ohio, & Mississippi river valleys; Caribbean possessions; trading posts in India & West Africa Netherlands: Surinam (S. America); Cape Colony (S. Africa); trading posts in West Africa, Sri Lanka, & India; also controlled trade with Java in SE Pacific
7 Mercantilist Goals Underlying economic theory of 18th-c. empires International trade as zero-sum game; whoever gets the most gold wins Colonies meant to trade exclusively with home country; hard to enforce because it was more profitable to trade with other colonies
8 Expanding and the Economy As the production of manufactured goods continued, Britain experienced a significant economic advantage over other countries Mercantilism favorable balance of trade Britain s colonies helped increase its wealth by purchasing British Goods Navigation Acts all goods into England had to be on British ships Monopoly on trade with their colonies!
9 Mercantilism Economics subordinated to the interest of the state: Collect more specie (gold & silver) than all other states Maintain a positive balance of trade (Export more than one imports) Read excerpt Mercantilism and Colonization
10 Factors leading to mercantilism Rise of the nation-state Commercial revolution Decline of the medieval economy
11 Practice of mercantilism External policies Favorable balance of trade Merchant marine (& navy) Colonial system Internal policies Regulation of prices and wages Regulation of labor Regulation of consumption
12 Political implications of mercantilism Assertion of national power Assumption that welfare of community will follow pursuit of national strength Duties of classes Laborer s lot: Poor, but not impoverished Responsibilities of the rich: Consume, but only to increase the power of the state Merchant's duty: Produce to enhance store of gold Obligations of the nobility: Produce sufficient food and raw materials
13 Harmony of interests Well-ordered national community No inherent conflict between or among the groups A moral community A visible and omnipresent hand
14 The international anarchy among states Assumption of nothing but conflict and war Economic competition was political rivalry Commercial transactions are always political
15 French-British Rivalry N. American colonial quarrels over St. Lawrence River valley, upper New England, Ohio River valley; fishing rights, fur trade, Native American alliances Biggest area of rivalry: West Indies tobacco, cotton, indigo, coffee, sugar India
16 The Spanish Colonial System Colonial Government The technical link between New World and Spain was crown of Castile Top-down administration, almost no self-government

18 The Silver Mines of Potosí. Worked by conscripted Indian laborers under extremely harsh conditions, these mines provided Spain with a vast treasure in silver.
19 Trade Regulation Only one port authorized for use in American trade Casa de Contración regulated all trade with New World Functioned to serve Spanish commercial interests (precious-metal mines) Flota system tried to ensure Spanish economic hegemony
20 Colonial Reform Under the Spanish Bourbon Monarchs Crucial early 18th-c. change: War of the Spanish Succession ( ) and Treaty of Utrecht replaced Spanish Habsburgs with Bourbons of France Philip V (r ) and successors tried to revive decaying trade monopoly, suppress smuggling Charles III (r ): most important imperial reformer royal representatives favored over local councils; improved imperial economy, but introduced tensions between Spanish from Spain and creoles (Spanish born in America)
21 African Presence in Americas Had always existed in some form in parts of Europe, but from 16th c., became fundamental to the British & Spanish imperial economies (plantation economy) Driven by labor shortage Supplied by internal African warfare: slave markets on West African coast not imposed by Europeans, but preexisting Began in 16th c. in Spanish America, 17th c. in British America Slave trade grew in 18th c. because of low fertility rate and high mortality rate of established slaves difficult to create stable self-reproducing population
22 Slavery and the Transatlantic Economy Slave trade: dominated by Portuguese & Spanish in 16th c., Dutch in 17th c., and English in 18th c. Triangular trade

26 Global Competition and the Balance of Power in the 18 th Century Winners UK Russia Prussia Austria Losers Poland-Lithuania Ottoman Empire France (?) Netherlands Sweden Spain
27 The Experience of Slavery Estimated 9 million Africans or more brought to Americas over 4 centuries Seasoned slaves worth more than those newly arrived Maintenance of ethnic bonds in the New World African language, religion Generally accepted that all the slaves in plantation societies led difficult lives with little variation Some slaves mixed Christianity with African religions One of factors that continued slavery was racist ideology
