Distant Ripples Of The British Abolitionist Wave: Africa, Asia and the Americas


Add your own review!

Overview

This collection of essays probes British efforts to abolish the slave trade internationally in the 19th century and how they impacted local discourses and practices relating to slavery and abolition in other continents and countries (Africa, the Americas, Asia). Coming in the wake of the bicentennial of the abolition of the slave trade by Britain in 1807, it insists on the ambiguous imperial ambitions of Britain, as well as on local initiatives to abolish slavery which did not simply draw their inspiration from Britain and the humanitarian rhetoric of the abolitionists.
