Today, a century and a half after the abolition of slavery across
most of the Americas, the idea of monetary reparations for former
slaves and their descendants continues to be a controversial one.
Lost among these debates, however, is the fact that such payments
were widespread in the nineteenth century-except the "victims" were
not slaves, but the slaveholders deprived of their labor. This
landmark comparative study analyzes the debates over compensation
within France and Great Britain. It lays out in unprecedented
detail the philosophical, legal-political, and economic factors at
play, establishing a powerful new model for understanding the
aftermath of slavery in the Americas.
