Economic Growth & End of Transatlantic Slave Trade
ISBN: 9780195041354 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 434 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This watershed study is the first to consider in concrete terms the consequences of Britain's abolition of the Atlantic slave trade. Why did Britain pull out of the slave trade just when it was becoming important for the world economy and the demand for labor around the world was high?

The Rise of African Slavery in the Americas
ISBN: 9780521655484 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Exploring the paradox of the concurrent development of slavery and freedom in the European domains, The Rise of African Slavery in the Americas provides a fresh interpretation of the development of the English Atlantic slave system. The book outlines a major African role in the evolution of the Atlantic societies before the nineteenth century and argues that the transatlantic slave trade was a result of African strength rather than African weakness. It also addresses changing patterns of group identity to account for the racial basis of slavery in the early modern Atlantic World.
