Sinopse
Essays by Brazilian and foreign historians on Black slavery in the Americas throughout the 19th century. While it declined or was abolished in certain areas of the New World, slavery flourished in the Southern United States, Cuba, and Brazil, areas that became dynamic hubs of a new and massive expansion of African slavery. These transformations raise questions that this book seeks to answer, albeit in different, if not divergent, ways. How should we define the second slavery? What are its temporal and spatial frameworks? What are its relationships with the restructuring of the capitalist world-economy in the 19th century? What is the relevance of the concept to the national historiographies of Brazil, the United States, and Cuba? And to Atlantic and Global History? How can we explain the processes of abolition of slavery in the United States, Cuba, and Brazil? Authors participating in the volume: Dale Tomich, Edward E. Baptist, José Antonio Piqueras, Rafael Marquese, Ricardo Salles, and Robin Blackburn.
