Debt and Slavery in the Mediterranean and Atlantic Worlds
by Alessandro Stanziani
Published 1 January 2013
Filling a significant gap in the historiography, the essays in this volume show that debt slavery has played a crucial role in the economic history of numerous societies which continues even today.
This volume of essays contains case studies of debt bondage covering the impact of an expanding globalized economy, increased commercialization, colonial and post-colonial societies, and emerging economies.
