    Abstract: "Now in its second edition, The Atlantic Slave Trade in World History has been updated to include recent scholarship, and an analysis of how debates have changed in light of recent key events such as the Black Lives Matter movement. Primarily focused on the Atlantic Slave Trade, this study places slavery within a broader world context and includes significant detailed coverage of Africa. With a chronological approach, it guides students through the origins of the Atlantic Slave Trade to its expansion and eventual abolition. Its final chapters explore the legacy of the Atlantic Slave Trade by comparing it to other systems of slavery outside of the Atlantic region, and analyse the persistence of modern-day slavery. As well as offering an analysis of historiography, the updated bibliography and conclusion, which considers the recent Black Lives Matter protests and their aftermath, provides a fresh account of how slavery has shaped our understanding of the modern world. Unmatched in its breadth of information, chronological sweep, and geographical coverage, The Atlantic Slave Trade in World History is the most useful introductory resource for all students who study the Atlantic Slave Trade in a world context"--
    Description / Table of Contents: Introduction -- The Beginnings of the Atlantic Slave Trade -- The Slave Trade Expands Greatly -- The Slave Trade at Its Height -- Abolitionism -- After Slavery? -- Conclusions.

    Abstract: In einem Moment, in dem hitzige Feuilleton-Debatten den Eindruck erwecken, es ginge um einen kurzlebigen Positionsstreit, stellt Charlotte Wiedemann klar: Was wir erleben, ist eine Zeitenwende – wir müssen unsere Haltung zur deutschen Geschichte aus einer kosmopolitischen Perspektive neu begründen. Das heißt: nicht-europäische, nicht-westliche Sichtweisen ebenso einbeziehen wie die Ansprüche einer jungen, diversen Generation in Deutschland. Wie lässt sich in Zukunft an den Holocaust und an die kolonialen Verbrechen erinnern? Globalhistorisch fundiert und persönlich zugleich denkt Charlotte Wiedemann die Idee des Antifaschismus neu und entwirft ein empathisches Gedenkkonzept für unsere Zeit.

    Abstract: "While human cannibalism has attracted considerable notice and controversy, certain aspects of the practice have received scant attention. These include the connection between cannibalism and xenophobia: the capture and consumption of unwanted strangers. Likewise ignored is the connection to slavery: the fact that in some societies slaves and persons captured in slave raids could be, and were, killed and eaten. This book explores these largely forgotten practices and ignored connections while making exploring the links between cannibal acts, imperialist influences and the role of capitalist trading practices that are highly important for the history of the slave trade and for understanding the colonialist history of Africa."

    Abstract: "1619 - Eine neue Geschichte der USA" - herausgegeben von Nikole Hannah-Jones - betrachtet die Geschichte der USA aus der Perspektive der Sklaverei und der Versklavten - beginnend mit 1619, dem Jahr, in dem die ersten Sklaven aus Afrika ankamen, also noch vor der Ankunft der Mayflower. Die Kapitel behandeln u.a. "Demokratie", "Staatsbürgerschaft", "Strafe" und "Musik". Jedes Kapitel besteht aus einer historischen Einführung sowie einem literarischen Teil in Form von Kurzgeschichten und Gedichten. Das ursprünglich im New York Times Magazine veröffentlichte Projekt wird im vorliegenden Buch zu einer umfassenden Anthologie. In den USA scheint das Werk zu polarisieren: zum Teil gehört es in Schulen zur Pflichtlektüre, in manchen - konservativen - Bundesstaaten steht es auf der schwarzen Liste. - Nicht zuletzt die namhaften Autor*innen wie Yaa Gyasi ("Heimkehren", ID-A 35/17), Ibram X. Kendi ("Gebrandmarkt", ID-A 4/18) oder Clint Smith ("Was wir uns erzählen", ID-A 21/22) machen das Buch zu einem besonderen Leseerlebnis und tragen zu einem umfassenderen Verständnis der amerikanischen Geschichte bei.

    Abstract: Der Hauptfokus des Buches sind die im Titel genannten Räume in Bezug auf das System der Atlantic slavery. Ich verstehe unter Atlantic slavery bzw. Atlantic slaveries sowohl die Sklaverei-Regimes an Land in Afrika und in Amerika, inclusive Inseln, wie auch Versklavung und Transport zu Land und zu Wasser sowie den Sklavenhandel auf dem Atlantik. Die drei territorialen Hauptelemente, vulgo Kontinente und Ozean, bilden das System Afrika-Atlantik-Amerikas (AAA). Europa spielte auch eine Rolle. Das Wesentliche war aber die Süd-Süd-Komponente, die vor allem unter iberischer Kontrolle stand (ca. 7 Millionen Versklavte aus Afrika von insgesamt rund 11 Millionen in die Amerikas Verschleppter). Das ist das strukturell-anthropologische Hauptproblem; das qualitative, aber auch chronologisch-historische, Hauptproblem ist die Bedeutung von AAA für die Geschichte der Moderne und des Kapitalismus.The book series of the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies publishes monographs and edited volumes that examine different phenomena of slavery and other forms of strong asymmetrical dependencies in societies. The series follows the BCDSS's research agenda in going beyond the dichotomy of slavery versus freedom by proposing a new key concept, strong asymmetrical dependency, which covers all forms of bondage across time and space. This includes debt bondage, convict labor, tributary labor, servitude, serfdom, and domestic work, as well as forms of wage labor and various types of patronage. Works published in this series will also investigate periods, regions and contexts in world history that have not been directly affected by Western colonization, such as the ancient Near East, pre-modern and modern societies in Asia, Africa, and the pre-colonial Americas.Language Policy Dependency and Slavery StudiesWith its mission to explore phenomena of asymmetrical dependency, the Bonn Center for Dependency and Slavery Studies (BCDSS) and its book series Dependency and Slavery Studies work against forms of gatekeeping which may put obstacles in the way of scholarly work in English felt to be non-standard. The Center and its book series understand language to be intimately connected to power structures and strive to foster an awareness of epistemic dependencies resulting from linguistic dependencies. Given that language is multiply situated and constantly evolving, the editors of Dependency and Slavery Studies do not insist on conformity to the traditional binary standard Englishes (British and American). Authors are thus encouraged to write in their national or regional variety of English

    Abstract: Parliament's decision in 1807 to outlaw British slaving was a key moment in modern world history. In this magisterial work, historian David Richardson challenges claims that this event was largely due to the actions of particular individuals and emphasizes instead that abolition of the British slave trade relied on the power of ordinary people to change the world. British slaving and opposition to it grew in parallel through the 1760s and then increasingly came into conflict both in the public imagination and in political discourse. Looking at the ideological tensions between Britons' sense of themselves as free people and their willingness to enslave Africans abroad, Richardson shows that from the 1770s those simmering tensions became politicized even as British slaving activities reached unprecedented levels, mobilizing public opinion to coerce Parliament to confront and begin to resolve the issue between 1788 and 1807

    Abstract: "From abolitionist medallions to statues of bondspeople bearing broken chains, sculpture gave visual and material form to narratives about the end of slavery in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Sculpture at the Ends of Slavery sheds light on the complex--and at times contradictory--place of such works as they moved through a world contoured both by the devastating economy of enslavement and by international abolitionist campaigns. By examining matters of making, circulation, display, and reception, Caitlin Meehye Beach argues that sculpture stood as a highly visible but deeply unstable site from which to interrogate the politics of slavery. With focus on works by Josiah Wedgwood, Hiram Powers, Edmonia Lewis, John Bell, and Francesco Pezzicar, Beach uncovers both the radical possibilities and the conflicting limitations of art in the pursuit of justice in racial capitalism's wake"--

    Abstract: Keine Gesamtschau, sondern fundierte Einblicke in die sechs Jahrhunderte umfassende, umfangreiche Globalgeschichte Afrikas vermittelt Arno Sonderegger, Afrikanist an der Universität Wien, im vorliegenden, ausgezeichneten Studienbuch, damit an seine "Kurze Geschichte des Alten Afrika" (ID-A 20/17) anschliessend. Sieben Kapitel zu Sklavenhandel, Antisklaverei-Bewegung, die Einbindung Afrikas in die kapitalistische Weltwirtschaft, Kolonialismus, ebenso wie zu Panafrikanismus, antikolonialen Strukturen und ihren Akteuren bilden den Kern des theorie- und quellengestützten Buchs. Der Autor versteht seine Texte auch als kritisch-aufklärerische Einmischung in laufende Afrika-Diskurse, deren Eindimensionalität und nicht nachlassender Eurozentrismus er in einem abschliessenden Kapitelkenntnisreich diskutiert. Karten, Literaturverzeichnis. - Dieser, um neue Dimensionen erweiterte Blick auf neuzeitliche Geschichte sollte in Bibliotheken in Universitätsnähe angeboten werden. (3) Barbara Dankert

    Abstract: "In this book, Forsdyke uncovers the wide range of experiences of slaves in ancient Greece. By focusing on the perspectives of slaves themselves, rather than their owners, she gives voice to a group that is often rendered silent by the historical record. By reading ancient sources 'against the grain,' and through careful deployment of comparative evidence from more recent slave-owning societies, she demonstrates that slaves engaged in a variety of strategies to deal with their conditions of enslavement, ranging from calculated accommodation to full-scale rebellion. Along the way, she demonstrates that slaves made a vital contribution to almost all aspects of Greek society. Above all, she shows that, despite often brutal treatment, slaves sometimes displayed great ingenuity in exploiting the tensions and contradictions within the system of slavery."

    Abstract: Slavery was a large-scale process that put its mark on the African landscape in tangible ways--for example, through the capture, transfer, and imprisonment of captives and through the avoidance strategies that vulnerable communities used against slaving. Certainly, the expansion of trade routes, the depopulation of slaved regions, and an increased reliance on defensive architecture and places of concealment can all be linked to slaving and slavery in Africa. But how do we view these landscapes of slavery today? And can archaeology help us? Encompassing studies from Senegal, Ghana, Mauritius, Tanzania, and Kenya, this volume grapples with such essential questions. The authors advocate for the power of archaeology as a tool to disentangle often lengthy and complex landscape histories that both begin before slavery and continue after abolition. They also argue for archaeologists' central role in reimagining how we might remember and commemorate slavery in places where its history has been forgotten, obscured by European colonialism, or sanitized and simplified for tourist consumption. The chapters in this book were originally published in a special issue of the Journal of African Diaspora Archaeology and Heritage

    Abstract: "Counterlife demonstrates that scholarship on slavery in the Americas has its imaginative roots in the emergence of sociology/social theory in the 1950s as well as aesthetic movements (e.g., naturalism and modernism) that flourished in the early twentieth century. Debates between social scientists, artists, and politicians about mass culture, modern urban space, and socialization amplify slavery studies' preoccupation with political insurgency and resistance. This book analyzes the kinds of descriptions of social space, power, and personality type that became pivotal in the early sociology and psychology of slavery studies"--

    Abstract: In 1807, Parliament outlawed the slave trade in the British Empire, but for the next quarter of a century, despite heroic and bloody rebellions, more than 700,000 people in the British colonies remained in slavery. And when a renewed abolitionist campaign was mounted, making slave ownership the defining political and moral issue of the day, emancipation was fiercely resisted by the powerful 'West India Interest'. Drawing on major new research, this long-overdue and ground-breaking history shows that the triumph of abolition was also one of the darkest episodes in British history, revealing the lengths to which British leaders went to defend the indefensible in the name of profit

    Abstract: "Traces and Memories deals with the foundation, mechanisms and scope of slavery-related memorial processes, interrogating how descendants of enslaved populations reconstruct the history of their ancestors when transatlantic slavery is one of the variables of the memorial process. While memory studies mark a shift from concern with historical knowledge of events to that of memory, the book seeks to bridge the memorial representations of historical events with the production and knowledge of those events. The book offers a methodological and epistemological reflection on the challenges that are raised by archival limitations in relation to slavery and how they can be overcome. It covers topics such as the historical and memorial legacy/ies of slavery, the memorialization of slavery, the canonization and patrimonialization of the memory of slavery, the places and conditions of the production of knowledge on slavery and its circulation, the heritage of slavery and the (re)construction of (collective) identity. By offering fresh perspectives on how slavery-related sites of memory have been retrospectively (re)framed or (re)shaped, the book probes the constraints which determine the inscription of this contentious memory in the public sphere. The volume will serve as a valuable resource in the area of slavery, memory, and Atlantic studies"--

    Abstract: Noch heute leben schätzungsweise 40 Millionen Menschen in "moderner Sklaverei". Andreas Eckert zeichnet in seinem profunden Band die düstere Geschichte einer Institution nach, die schon seit der Antike in unterschiedlichen Ausprägungen in allen Weltregionen anzutreffen ist. Zugleich geht er der Frage nach den Motiven von Sklavenhändlern und -haltern nach, den Handlungsspielräumen der Versklavten und den Ursachen für den allmählichen Wandel der Sklaverei von einem akzeptierten Übel zu einer geächteten Abscheulichkeit. Seit der Antike fällt der lange Schatten der Sklaverei auf die Weltgeschichte. Auch heute noch leben schätzungsweise 40 Millionen Menschen in "moderner Sklaverei". Andreas Eckert zeichnet in diesem Band die Geschichte einer Institution nach, die in ganz unterschiedlichen Ausprägungen in allen Weltregionen und allen Zeiten anzutreffen ist. Nicht zuletzt in Afrika und im atlantischen Raum spielte sie eine zentrale Rolle. Eckerts kenntnisreiche Darstellung geht auch der Frage nach, was Sklavenhändler und -halter dazu bewogen hat, derart grausame Verhältnisse zu schaffen und zu unterhalten, welche Spielräume Versklavte sich zu erkämpfen vermochten, und wie es dazu kam, dass aus einem akzeptierten Übel eine allgemein geächtete Abscheulichkeit werden konnte. „Andreas Eckerts informative Darstellung konzentriert sich auf ökonomische Strukturen, die Schicksale der betroffenen Menschen kommen selten zur Sprache. Anschaulichkeit und Lebendigkeit bleiben so leider allzu oft auf der Strecke. Trotzdem lohnt sich die Lektüre: Eckerts Buch bietet eine komprimierte Darstellung auf knappem Raum und öffnet die Augen für erzwungene Abhängigkeitsverhältnisse bis in unsere Gegenwart“ (deutschlandfunkkultur.de)

    Abstract: "This book presents a new approach to nineteenth-century Atlantic history by extending the analytical perspective of the second slavery to questions of empire, colonialism, and slavery. With a focus on Latin America, Brazil, the Spanish Caribbean, and the United States, international scholars examine relations among empires, between empires and colonies, and within colonies as parts of processes of global economic and political restructuring. By treating metropolis-colony relations within the framework of the modern world-economy, the contributors call attention to the political, economic, and cultural interdependence and interaction of global and local forces shaping the Atlantic world. They reinterpret as specific local responses to global processes the conflicts between empires, within imperial relations, the formation of national states, the creation of new zones of agricultural production and the decline of old ones, and the emergence of liberal ideologies and institutions"

    Abstract: Fancy -- Seamstress -- Concubine -- Housekeeper
    Abstract: "In the current boisterous debate over the relationship between slavery and capitalism, one subject has been conspicuously absent: women, both enslaved and free. This project places women's labor at the center of the antebellum slave trade, focusing particularly on slave traders' ability to profit from enslaved women's domestic, reproductive, and sexual labor. Alexandra J. Finley shows how women often performed the foundational labor necessary to the functioning of the slave trade, and thus to the spread of slavery to the Lower South, the expansion of cotton production, and the profits accompanying both of these markets. She makes this argument through five case studies, each of which highlights a particular woman or group of women who labored in the slave market. Some of these women performed domestic labor for slave traders, sewing outfits for enslaved people about to be sold, cooking meals for traders traveling to slave markets in New Orleans, or operating boarding houses where traders lodged. Many also performed reproductive labor, raising slave traders' children, giving birth to the future enslaved workforce, or practicing midwifery. Or they were chosen as concubines, or "fancy girls." Such women exemplify the importance of female labor to slave trading, performing domestic, reproductive, and sexual labor all at once for the man who enslaved them. In bringing a gendered perspective to the economic history of slavery, which is currently missing from the conversation, Finley demonstrates that women's labor was not "natural" or incidental to economic development, but a product of specific discourses about the biological roots of gender and race"--

    Abstract: "Enmeshed in the exploitative world of racial slavery, overseers were central figures in the management of early American plantation enterprises. All too frequently dismissed as brutal and incompetent, they defy easy categorisation. Some were rogues, yet others were highly skilled professionals, farmers, and artisans. Some were themselves enslaved. They and their wives, with whom they often formed supervisory partnerships, were caught between disdainful planters and defiant enslaved labourers, as they sought to advance their ambitions. Their history, revealed here in unprecedented detail, illuminates the complex power struggles and interplay of class and race in a volatile slave society"--

Through an analysis of the Haitian Revolution, Grüner examines the impact of slavery on the evolution of modernity in South America, and the way in which this revolution created a 'counter-modernity,' a path on which Latin America and the Caribbean have travelled ever since"--

    Abstract: "This book focuses on alternative types of slave narratives, especially courtroom testimony, and interrogates how such narratives were produced, the societies (both those that were majority slave societies and those in which slaves were a distinct minority of the population) in which testimony was permitted, and the meanings that can be attached to such narratives. The chapters in this book provide valuable information about the everyday lives-including the inner and spiritual lives-of enslaved African American and Native American individuals in the British and French Atlantic World, from Canada to the Caribbean. It explores slave testimony as a form of autobiographical narrative, and in ways that allow us to foreground enslaved persons' lived experience as expressed in their own words"--

Their actions helped transform Jamaica into the wealthiest slaveholding colony in the Anglo-Atlantic world. Starting in the 1670s, a surprisingly large and diverse group of women helped secure English control of Jamaica and, crucially, aided its developing and expanding slave labor regime by acquiring enslaved men, women, and children to protect their own tenuous claims to status and independence"--

    Abstract: "By 1860, the value of the slave population in the United States exceeded $3 billion--triple that of investments nationwide in factories, railroads, and banks combined, and worth more even than the South's lucrative farmland. The slave was not only a commodity to be traded but also a kind of currency and the basis for a range of credit relations. But the value associated with slavery was not destroyed in the Civil War. In Black Market, Aaron Carico reveals how the slave commodity survived emancipation, arguing that the enslaved person--understood here in legal, economic, social, and embodied contexts--still operated as an indispensable form of value in national culture. Carico explains how a radically incomplete--and fundamentally failed--abolition enabled the emergence of a modern nation-state, in which slavery still determined--and now goes on to determine--economic, political, and cultural life."

    Abstract: "Colonial rule distorts a colony's economy and its society, and British rule was no exception. British policies led to a stratified American colonial society with slaves on the bottom and white settlers on top. The divided society functioned through laws that imposed rules and defined roles of the respective races. This occurred in other colonies too, often leading to strife that continues today. Especially since World War II the United States seems finally to have been able to remove many laws and practices that had created barriers between races in the divided society. Appeals to legitimacy, such as by abolitionists and the Civil Rights Movement, were essential to change laws from support of the divided society to instruments for disestablishing it. Thanks to the rule of law - another important British legacy -- the U.S. is much farther along than many former colonies in making progress. By highlighting the history of the interplay of two fundamental concepts, the divided society and the rule of law, and briefly contrasting the experiences of other former colonies, this book shows how the United States has made significant long-term progress, although incomplete, and ways for this to continue today"--

    Abstract: "Traces and Memories deals with the foundation, mechanisms and scope of slavery-related memorial processes, interrogating how descendants of enslaved populations reconstruct the history of their ancestors when transatlantic slavery is one of the variables of the memorial process. While memory studies mark a shift from concern with historical knowledge of events to that of memory, the book seeks to bridge the memorial representations of historical events with the production and knowledge of those events. The book offers a methodological and epistemological reflection on the challenges that are raised by archival limitations in relation to slavery and how they can be overcome. It covers topics such as the historical and memorial legacy/ies of slavery, the memorialization of slavery, the canonization and patrimonialization of the memory of slavery, the places and conditions of the production of knowledge on slavery and its circulation, the heritage of slavery and the (re)construction of (collective) identity. By offering fresh perspectives on how slavery-related sites of memory have been retrospectively (re)framed or (re)shaped, the book probes the constraints which determine the inscription of this contentious memory in the public sphere. The volume will serve as a valuable resource in the area of slavery, memory, and Atlantic studies"--
