In the context of sugar production in Trinidad, the dissertation examines the role of law and the state in the incorporation of unfree labour during the colonial and early post-colonial period. In orienting the analytical focus to account for the human agency and resistance of sugar workers, the dissertation finds that law and the state channel worker opposition into processes or pathways of exit. These exit processes mediate the shifts within, and transitions between, unfree labour regimes. Three key observations emerge from the historical analysis. First, the "mobilize to immobilize" dynamic, which describes how legal regimes tightly structured the movement and relocation of unfree sugar workers, represents a broad and generalizable phenomenon. Second, the "pathways to exit" illustrate the ways that law channels opposition and shapes expectations. Third, the recurring demands of "recruitment" and "retention" made by owners, demonstrates how aggregated capital's need for labour power extraction is internalized within and facilitated by the state. In constituting the conditions and relations of unfree labour, law and the state render unfree labour an enduring (if strategic) feature of capitalism.
