摘要

十八世纪下半叶至十九世纪初,印度洋成为欧洲帝国国家发动全球战争的战场。本文比较了三个殖民国家在法国、丹麦和英国殖民领土上如何应对相互关联的政治威胁,在这一地区,帝国主权和管辖权的界限往往模糊不清,并经常重新谈判。与其说递解出境是一种正式认可的理论和法律范畴,不如将其理解为一种解决各种问题的粗糙工具。虽然强制驱逐罪犯、宗教少数派或政治反对派并非十八世纪末的新工具,但人们往往忽视了政治驱逐在 "革命时代 "的印度洋也是一种广泛使用的法律实践。在这一地区,帝国中心使用递解出境来除掉政敌,地区当局也使用这种手段,但并不参照大都会的命令。这通常不是一种司法惩罚,而是一种以政治需要为名的行政措施。这篇文章的重点是法属留尼汪、丹麦特兰克巴和英属本地治里这三块殖民飞地,在这一时期,围困心态和对政治煽动的恐惧无处不在。同时代的人认为,将这三个殖民地连接起来的是一个单一的阴谋,涉及到同一批主角,他们在从一个地方转移到另一个地方时重新部署了自己的项目。但在这三个地方和社会中,递解出境引发了不同的问题。将激进分子丢弃在异国他乡可能是一种短期解决办法,但很少能长期解决问题:被驱逐者往往在一段时间后返回,这是殖民当局不愿做出不可挽回的决定以及印度洋上帝国与政体纠葛的直接后果。

The Return of the Repressed: Political Deportation in the 
Indian Ocean during the Age 
of Revolutions
Between the second half of the eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth century, the Indian Ocean became a theatre of the global war waged by European imperial states. This article compares how three colonial powers, in French, Danish, and British colonial territories, dealt with interconnected political threats, in a region where the limits of imperial sovereignty and jurisdictions were often blurred and frequently renegotiated. Rather than a formally sanctioned doctrine and legal category, deportation should be understood as a crude tool for solving a variety of problems. Although the forced removal of criminals, religious minorities or political opponents was not a new instrument to the late eighteenth century, it is often ignored that political deportation was also a widely used legal practice in the Indian Ocean during the ‘age of revolutions’. In this region, deportation was used by imperial centres to get rid of political enemies, but also by regional authorities, without referring to metropolitan orders. It was usually not a judicial punishment, but an administrative measure justified in the name of political necessity. This article focuses on three small colonial enclaves, French Reunion, Danish Tranquebar, and British Pondicherry, where a siege mentality and fear of political sedition were omnipresent in this period. Contemporaries believed, with some justifications, that a single conspiracy linked these three colonial theatres, involving the same set of protagonists, who redeployed their projects as they were removed from one place to the next. But in these three sites and societies, deportation raises different issues. Dumping radicals on a foreign shore might have been a short-term fix, but it rarely solved problems in the long term: deportees often returned after some time, which was a direct consequence of the colonial authorities’ reluctance to take irreparable decisions, and of the entanglement of empires and polities in the Indian Ocean.
