This article wishes to contribute to the study of disobedience rights, by analyzing instances of resistance against slavery in the French Antilles during the Restoration period. This period was the backdrop for quite a number of significant slave revolts; not just in the French colonies, but also the English and the Spanish ones, such as Jamaica, Cuba, the Barbados islands or the Bermudas. The uprisings occurred coincidentally during a phase of French history that witnessed a booming slave trade, although it had been formally abolished following the congress of Vienna.
