520    The prevailing characterization of the seventeenth century
       English Atlantic Empire as one in which commercial 
       interests are pre-dominated seems to be myopic. Gradually 
       legal and political considerations, as much as economic 
       considerations, shaped imperial policies throughout this 
       period, and formed the basis for the development of 
       England's imperial constitution. Analyzing the expansion 
       and evolution of the Empire on the basis of law, reveals 
       why the Empire developed the way it did and how that form 
       changed over time. Over the course of the late seventeenth
       century, the Lords of Trade sought to control the legal 
       and political development of the Atlantic colonies. This 
       book illustrates the concerted effort to create a 
       centralized system of legal oversight through the 
       regulation of colonial statutes and the circumscription of
       law-making power of colonial governments. Legal principles,
       more than mercantile interests or commercial policies, 
       provided the primary framework through which relationships
       between metropolitan officials and colonial settlers were 
       mediated. Legal actions have started to become critical 
       vehicles for the consolidation of imperial authority over 
       the colonial periphery. Imperial legal policies should be 
       considered in connection with domestic politics as both 
       undoubtedly influenced the shape of Restoration imperial 
       policy. Although historians have tended to ignore the 
       influence of domestic politics in the development of the 
       Empire, the interplay between domestic and imperial legal 
       politics demonstrates that imperial policies were often 
       forged in relation and in response to political events and
       ideologies in Restoration England.
