Capitalism and Slavery, Third Edition book cover

Capitalism and Slavery, Third Edition

Eric Williams

Discover the history of how slavery helped finance the Industrial Revolution in England and expanded capitalism worldwide. Eric Williams' Capitalism and Slavery, published in 1944, established the centrality of the African slave trade in European economic development. His profound critique, blending an economic view of history with strong moral argument, refuted traditional ideas of progress and established the exploitation of commercial capitalism and its link to racial attitudes. A must-read for those interested in imperialism, economic development, and the lasting impact of slavery on our world.

I aspire to write a concluding chapter as clear and succinct as Eric Williams did for his book, Capitalism and Slavery.      fuente
