Volume 3 of The Cambridge World History of Slavery is a collection of essays exploring the various manifestations of coerced labor in Africa; Asia; and the Americas between the opening up of the Atlantic World and the formal creation of the new nation of Haiti. The authors; well-known authorities in their respective fields; place slavery in the foreground of the collection but also examine other types of coerced labor. Essays are organized both nationally and thematically and cover the major empires; coerced migration; slave resistance; gender; demography; law; and the economic significance of coerced labor. Non-scholars will also find this volume accessible.
