Slavery and coerced labor have been among the most ubiquitous of
human institutions both in time - from ancient times to the present
- and in place, having existed in virtually all geographic areas
and societies. This volume covers the period from the independence
of Haiti to modern perceptions of slavery by assembling
twenty-eight original essays, each written by scholars acknowledged
as leaders in their respective fields. Issues discussed include the
sources of slaves, the slave trade, the social and economic
functioning of slave societies, the responses of slaves to
enslavement, efforts to abolish slavery continuing to the present
day, the flow of contract labor and other forms of labor control in
the aftermath of abolition, and the various forms of coerced labor
that emerged in the twentieth century under totalitarian regimes
and colonialism.
