How the Dutch Ran a Seventeenth-Century Colony: The Occupation and Loss of Formosa 1624–1662

Abstract

In 1861 the bookJava: Or, How to Manage a Colony, by J.W.B. Money, which compared the deficits suffered by British India with the profitability of the cultivation of Java and Madura, caused considerable discussion among the Dutch politicians. At an international level, the last word has yet to be spoken in the debate among historians and economists on the profits and losses of former colonies.
