Descripción
Sumario:Debates over the economic, social, and political meaning of slavery and the slave trade have persisted for over two hundred years. The Atlantic Slave Trade brings clarity and critical insight to the subject. In fourteen essays, leading scholars consider the nature and impact of the transatlantic slave trade and assess its meaning for the people transported and for those who owned them. Among the questions these essays address are: the social cost to Africa of this forced migration; the role of slavery in the economic development of Europe and the United States; the short-ter.
Notas:Papers presented at a conference "The Atlantic Slave Trade: Who Gained and Who Lost?" held at the University of Rochester in October 1988.
