Urban Slavery in the Age of Abolition: Volume 28, Part 1

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

When the full abolition of slavery appeared on the political agenda in the Atlantic world, the institutional arrangements that underpinned it changed dramatically. This volume explores how cities were part and parcel of slave societies, and how methods of control as well as routes to emancipation changed in the century before emancipation.
