The paper describes the nature and role of accounting during apprenticeship - the transition period from slavery to waged labor in the British West Indies. Planters, colonial legislators, and Parliamentary leaders all feared that freed slaves would flee to open lands unless they were bound to plantations. Thus, rather than relying entirely on economic incentives to maintain viable plantations, the Abolition Act and subsequent local ordinances embodied a complex synthesis of paternalism, categorization, penalties, punishments, and social controls that were collectively intended to create a class of willing waged laborers. The primary role of accounting within this structure was to police work arrangements rather than to induce apprentices to become willing workers. This post-emancipation...

It's difficult to explain 's appeal. Well, of course, it's not, if you're just talking the generic appeal of all Caribbean islands to Winnipeggers in January: blue water, white sand, palm trees, daquiris and sun, sun, sun. But it's trickier to make clear just why this tiny coral outcropping in the West Indies has such a hold on visitors. As a six-time returnee, for me, it's partly the country's unwillingness to totally tart itself up for the tourist trade. There's no doubt that the island's economy relies heavily on tourists and it treats them well, but it isn't an obsequious, suck-uppy kind of treatment. And even on the west coast, where the gleaming, expensive, exclusive hotels are, the real world -- quaint and colourful but sometimes kind of grubby and run-down -- is right o...
