LovejoyProduktart: TaschenbuchEAN: 9780521176187ISBN: 9780521176187Verlag: Cambridge University PressGenre: HistoryRelease date: 10/10/2011Description: This history of African slavery from the fifteenth to the early twentieth centuries examines how indigenous African slavery developed within an international context. Paul E. Lovejoy discusses the medieval Islamic slave trade and the Atlantic trade as well as the enslavement process and the marketing of slaves. He considers the impact of European abolition and assesses slavery's role in African history. The book corrects the accepted interpretation that African slavery was mild and resulted in the slaves' assimilation. Instead, slaves were used extensively in production, although the exploitation methods and the relationships to world markets differed from those in the Americas. Nevertheless, slavery in Africa, like slavery in the Americas, developed from its position on the periphery of capitalist Europe. This new edition revises all statistical material on the slave trade demography and incorporates recent research and an updated bibliography.Herstellungsland und -region: GBHöhe: 228mmLänge: 161mmBreite: 22mmGewicht: 560gBuchreihe: African StudiesTitle Format: TaschenbuchSprache: EnglischInformation fehlt?Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns, wenn Details fehlen und wir werden diese solange möglich zu unserer Beschreibung hinzufügen., Festpreisangebot, [LT: FixedPrice], Buchtitel: Transformations in Slavery, Subtitle: A History of Slavery in Africa, EAN: 9780521176187, Genre: History, Release date: 10/10/2011, Herstellungsland und -region: GB, Höhe: 228mm, Länge: 161mm, Breite: 22mm, Gewicht: 560g, Buchreihe: African Studies, Sprache: Englisch, Cambridge University Press<
