Description
Caribbean Slavery in the Atlantic World: A Student Reader by Verene Shepherd and Hilary Beckles is a comprehensive collection of essays that explores the complex social, economic, and cultural dynamics of slavery in the Caribbean. Spanning over 70 articles, this revised and expanded volume provides an ambitious range of coverage on topics such as the sociology and economics of slavery, race and colour relations, health and morality, and women's roles within slave systems. The essays in this collection offer a nuanced understanding of the superstructure of slave systems, including debates around social control, resistance, and the disintegration of the slave system from the Haitian Revolution to Spanish Caribbean emancipation. This theme provides valuable insights into the maturing anti-slavery consciousness and politics that emerged during this period. With its extensive coverage and in-depth analysis, Caribbean Slavery in the Atlantic World: A Student Reader is an invaluable resource for scholars and researchers seeking to understand the complexities of slavery in the Atlantic world.
