The trade in slaves is perhaps the most notorious feature of the
era of European expansion. Though begun in ancient times, and
continued well after 1800, in the early modern period there
developed a particular nexus in which it boomed. This volume
distinguishes between procurement and trade, and the exploitation
of settled slaves (the subject of a separate volume in the series,
edited by Judy Bieber), and underscores the importance of the slave
trade as a factor in world history. A rank redistribution of wealth
and power, it permitted the exploitation and reconstruction of much
of the globe. The articles address issues of the volume and flow of
trade, the various populations enslaved, factors of sex, age, and
ethnicity, and its impact on economic change, as in the
monetization of Africa or economic growth in England.
