SLAVE TRADE PROFITEERS IN THE WESTERN INDIAN OCEAN Suppression and Resistance in the Nineteenth Century Hideaki Suzuki
Palgrave Series in Indian Ocean World Studies Series Editor Gwyn Campbell McGill University Montreal, Canada
This is the first scholarly series devoted to the study of the Indian Ocean world from early times to the present day. Encouraging interdisciplinarity, it incorporates and contributes to key debates in a number of areas including history, environmental studies, anthropology, sociology, political science, geography, economics, law, and labor and gender studies. Because it breaks from the restrictions imposed by country/regional studies and Eurocentric periodization, the series provides new frameworks through which to interpret past events, and new insights for present-day policymakers in key areas from labor relations and migration to diplomacy and trade.
