| Description: |
Focusing upon specific indigenous societies and Islam, this collection examines the meaning of slavery and its abolition in and around the Western Indian Ocean area. Comparisons are made between developments in this region and the Atlantic slavery system. |
| Synopsis: |
The abolition of slavery in and around the Western Indian Ocean have been little studied. This collection examines the meaning of slavery and its abolition in relation to specific indigenous societies and to Islam, a religion that embraced the entire region, and draws comparisons between similar developments in the Atlantic system. Case studies include South Africa, Mauritius, Madagascar, the Benadir Coast, Arabia, the Persian Gulf and India. This volume marks an important new development in the study of slavery and its abolition in general, and an original approach to the history of slavery in the Indian Ocean and Asia regions. |
