Ground-breaking edited collection charting the rise and fall of
forms of unfree labour in the ancient Mediterranean and in the
modern Atlantic, employing the methodology of comparative history.
The eleven chapters in the book deal with conceptual issues and
different approaches to historical comparison, and include specific
case-studies ranging from the ancient forms of slavery of classical
Greece and of the Roman empire to the modern examples of slavery
that characterised the Caribbean, Latin America and the United
States. The results demonstrate both how much the modern world has
inherited from the ancient in regard to ideology and practice of
slavery; and also how many of the issues and problems related to
the latter seem to have been fundamentally similar across time and
space.
