En 1721, le premier plant de café des Antilles est introduit en Martinique. Très vite, sa culture se répand et se développe sur le territoire dans un contexte économique basé sur l'exploitation d'une main-d'œuvre esclavisée. C'est cette population caféière esclave ou libre de la Martinique aux xviiie et xixe siècles que révèle ce livre. Si les anciennes colonies françaises de la Caraïbe avaient été jusqu'ici perçues comme des îles à sucre où les structures sociales opposaient verticalement le Blanc au Noir, l'ouvrage donne à voir une organisation sociale bien plus riche et complexe. Il renouvelle ainsi le concept de société d'habitation à travers la mise en perspective d'un milieu social resté jusque-là bien trop inaperçu.

Mainstream Growth Economists and Capital Theorists provides a historical survey and ideal introduction to modern economics, arguing that due to significant changes in recent years, a re-evaluation is in order. Marin Muzhani presents an informed study of the debates regarding economic growth and development that began in the 1930s in response to the Great Depression. He argues that in the wake of that crisis, the challenge for economists was to understand how to generate stable economic growth in order to prevent future crises. The theories of John Maynard Keynes, in particular, sought to explain the reasons for unemployment and recessions, paving the way for the field of macroeconomics and challenging the basic premises of neoclassical economics. In the late 1930s and 1940s, economists began to extend Keynes' ideas, synthesizing them with neoclassical ideas in order to explain economic growth. This "neoclassical synthesis" would dominate mainstream macroeconomic thought for the next forty years until the mid-1980s with the introduction of endogenous growth theories. Taking into account the historical background, the multitude of interpretations of modern growth models, and the geography of mainstream economists, Mainstream Growth Economists and Capital Theorists will simplify the structure of growth theory for the next generation of economists.
