Marronage declined as plantation slavery rationalized and slave communities formed

Evidence

In seventeenth-century colonial North America, marronage appeared first. But as the eighteenth century succeeded the seventeenth, marronage as the prevalent form of Black resistance became increasingly difficult, as merchant and manufacturing capitalists expanded plantation slavery, rationalized the structures of domination between the colonies, and defeated the native Americans. As slave communities formed, marronage was eventually superseded. — Cedric J. Robinson, Black Marxism_ The Making of the Black…, 1433
