"No Peace Beyond the Line": this traditional expression characterizes the historiography of intercolonial relations in the early modern Caribbean. This historiography insists on the legal geography of the European treaties as a constituent factor of imperial rivalries in the Caribbean, embodied by the romantic figure of the privateer. This legal geography would have perpetuated situations of unregulated wars in America, which the colonial actors would have embraced as their own conflicts. This article proposes a new look on this historiography of intercolonial relations and a reflection on the consequences of the imperial wars on empires in the 17th century. Through the study of the treaties of neutrality in St. Christopher (an island shared between two French and English settlements between 1627 and 1713), my point is to show what means the colonial actors implemented to avoid conflicts imposed by European metropolises. |
