Looking at the ways in which the memory of slavery affects
present-day relations in Amsterdam, this ethnographic account
reveals a paradox: while there is growing official attention to the
country's slavery past (monuments, festivals, ritual occasions),
many interlocutors showed little interest in the topic. Developing
the notion of "trace" as a seminal notion to explore this paradox,
this book follows the issue of slavery in everyday realities and
offers a fine-grained ethnography of how people refer to this past
- often in almost unconscious ways - and weave it into their
perceptions of present-day issues.
