520 1 $a"This volume tests the relationship between charted law and enforced law in varied settings, with different social and racial structures, different economics, and different constitutional relationships to Britain. Investigation of the enforcement of master and servant law in England, the British Caribbean, India, Africa, Hong Kong, Canada, Australia, and colonial America shed new light on the nature of law and legal institutions, the role of inferior courts in compelling performance, and the definition of "free labor" within a multiracial empire."--BOOK JACKET.
