{"product_id":"between-blood-and-gold-frdrique-beauvois-9781785333316","title":"Between Blood and Gold: The Debates Over Compensation for Slavery in the Americas","description":"\u003cp\u003e Today, a century and a half after the abolition of slavery across most of the Americas, the idea of monetary reparations for former slaves and their descendants continues to be a controversial one. Lost among these debates, however, is the fact that such payments were widespread in the nineteenth century-except the \"victims\" were not slaves, but the slaveholders deprived of their labor. This landmark comparative study analyzes the debates over compensation within France and Great Britain. It lays out in unprecedented detail the philosophical, legal-political, and economic factors at play, establishing a powerful new model for understanding the aftermath of slavery in the Americas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fr馘駻ique Beauvois\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1785333313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781785333316\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2017","brand":"Fr馘駻ique Beauvois","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44078649835775,"sku":"9781785333316","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0618fd5d-f2dd-48b5-8890-d57f98446043.jpg?v=1685476716","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/between-blood-and-gold-frdrique-beauvois-9781785333316","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
