Abstract:Historians of settler colonialism have posited that the interplay of four interlinked types of relations are central to settler societies. In particular, they emphasize shifting interactions between indigenous peoples and a settler collective; between the settler group and exogenous subaltern groups (for example, migrants of Asian and African descent in North America); between indigenous and exogenous subaltern groups; and the overlap between settler states and the imperial metropoles that spawned them. This case study of the Franco-Newfoundland trade suggests that analyzing and theorizing settler contexts also requires close attention to the informal, mainly commercial, linkages between settler states and the multiplicity of rival metropoles vying for access to spaces and resources in the "Age of Empire."

“对自己忠诚的强烈渴望”：19 世纪的法国-纽芬兰贸易、非正式帝国和殖民者殖民主义

摘要：定居者殖民主义的历史学家认为，四种相互关联的关系类型的相互作用是定居者社会的核心。他们特别强调土著人民和定居者集体之间不断变化的互动；在定居者群体和外源性下层群体之间（例如，北美的亚裔和非洲裔移民）；土著和外源下层群体之间；以及定居者国家和产生它们的帝国大都市之间的重叠。这个关于法国-纽芬兰贸易的案例研究表明，分析和理论化定居者环境还需要密切关注定居者国家与争夺“帝国时代”空间和资源的竞争大都市之间的非正式联系，主要是商业联系.”
