This work states that African slaves and slave owners played a
central role both in the expansion of slavery and the reform of
servile relationships. Local elites resisted, diverted and
appropriated metropolitan attempts to end or restrict access to and
control of slaves. At the same time slaves were able to liberate
themselves and take part in mass emancipations. The situationwas
transformed by the introduction of new economic opportunities and
politicisation and social change among slaves themselves. North
