AFRICAN AMERICAN AND AFRICANA STUDIES 1-800-877-4253 | gale.cengage.com/gdc PART I: DEBATES OVER SL AVERY AND ABOLITION Debates over Slavery and Abolition sheds light on the abolitionist movement, the conflicts within it, the anti- and pro-slavery arguments of the period, and the debates on the subject of colonization. It explores all facets of the issue with a focus on economic, gender, legal, religious, and government issues. PART II: THE SL AVE TRADE IN THE ATL ANTIC WORLD The Slave Trade in the Atlantic World continues this ground-breaking series by charting the inception of slavery in Africa and its rise throughout the Atlantic world, placing particular emphasis on the Caribbean, Latin America, and United States. More international in scope than Part I, this collection was developed by an international editorial board with scholars specializing in U.S., European, African, and Latin American/ Caribbean aspects of the slave trade. SL AVERY & ANTI-SL AVERY: A TRANSNATIONAL ARCHIVE PART III: INSTITUTION OF SL AVERY Further expanding the depth of coverage of the topic, Institution of Slavery explores, in vivid detail, the inner workings of slavery from 1492-1888. Through legal documents, plantation records, first-person accounts, newspapers, government records, and other primary sources, Part III reveals how enslaved people struggled against the institution. Sourced from the National Archives Kew, the British Library, the U.S. National Archives, and the University of Miami, these rare works explore slavery as a legal and labor system, the relationship between slavery and religion, freed slaves, the Shong Massacre, the Dememara insurrection, and many others. 5
