A escravidão é um fenômeno complexo e multifacetado. Dessa maneira, também são variadas as formas de analisá-la. O combate ao trabalho escravo, por essa razão, deve procurar entender o seu objeto da forma mais ampla possível. A partir dessa premissa, na presente dissertação foi objetivado entender a escravidão a partir da sua análise sociológica, com fulcro de o seu entendimento jurídico ser mais rico e fecundo, e, portanto, o seu combate ser mais eficaz. Com a finalidade de cumprir esse objetivo, a escravidão foi estudada primeiramente no campo jurídico, com análises doutrinárias e jurisprudenciais, e, depois, analisada no campo sociológico, exclusivamente a partir da perspectiva doutrinária. O resultado da dissertação consistiu no confrontamento desses dois campos, por meio do qual se concluiu que: 1. A escravidão é comum à história humana, logo, o seu combate é árduo; 2. Ela é sempre uma manifestação de força e de violência, logo, cabe ao Direito do Trabalho a sua definição; 3. Ela aliena o trabalhador de forma objetiva e subjetiva, sendo relevante o seu combate em ambas as frentes; 4. Ela não é economicamente irracional, variando o seu grau de produtividade, sendo influenciável, portanto, pelo contexto econômico em que se encontra e 5. A discriminação racial no Brasil é um de seus resultados, logo, o combate a uma implica no combate a outra.

The slavery is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon. Thus, there are also different ways to analyze it. The fight against slave labor, therefore, should seek to understand its object the broadest possible way. From this premise, in this dissertation was objective is understand slavery from its sociological analysis, with the fulcrum of its legal understanding be richer and fruitful, and more effective. In order to fulfill this goal, slavery was first studied in the legal field, with doctrinal and jurisprudential analysis and then analyzed in sociological field, exclusively from the doctrinal perspective. It was concluded that: 1. Slavery is common in human history, so their combat is hard; 2. Slavery is always a manifestation of force and violence, so it is up to Labor Law to define it; 3. Slavery alienates the worker objectively and subjectively, and it is relevant fight it on both fronts; 4. Slavery is not economically irrational, varying the degree of productivity, being influenced, therefore, by the economic context in which it is included and 5. Racial discrimination in Brazil is one of slavery results, so the fight one means to combat the other.

▼ This dissertation explores how Britons used their experiences raising five of the most prolific European animals – cows, sheep, horses, pigs, and dogs – to understand, implement, and question the enslavement of humans in America between 1550 and 1815. Expanding the historiographical boundaries of slave and animal histories, I argue that whites put Africans into bondage as an outgrowth of their divine sanction to “improve” nature, to turn wild and unproductive beasts into tame and useful ones. This process was far from static. As farmers and agricultural improvers developed new, more rigorously mercantile, ways of relating to livestock at the center of the British Empire, they shaped and were shaped by a growing commodification of slaves on the peripheries. Beginning in the seventeenth century and continuing with breeding experiments with sheep in the eighteenth, herd animals in Britain were transformed from individual servants on the farm into aggregates, vast collectives of living meat. Horses and dogs saw their conditions improve, but they too were increasingly bred for profit and specialized labor. While colonists were slow to adopt British innovations as they related to animals, they supported and appropriated them in their interactions with Africans. As early as the sixteenth century, explorers and artists characterized Africans as wild and unproductive animals whom whites had a duty to make useful and profitable. Colonial officials, first in Barbados and then in the Chesapeake and Lowcountry, extended these arguments to the legal realm, often placing servants and slaves in the same categories as livestock. And planters increasingly treated slaves as equivalent units of financial production, replaceable cogs in massive and lucrative plantation machines. As Britons on both sides of the Atlantic saw the improvement of nature as a mercantile rather than moral endeavor, and thus treated slaves as commodities, eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century century humanitarian reformers came to criticize slavery and animal cruelty alike.

▼ This thesis examines the Royal Navy’s efforts to suppress the transatlantic slave trade between 1807 and the mid-1860s. The role of the West Africa squadron in detaining slave ships embarking from the West African coast was instrumental in the transformation of Britain’s profile from a prolific slave trading nation to the principal emancipator of enslaved Africans. The wider framework for naval suppression encompassed international law, official policy and diplomacy, but at the operational frontline of the campaign were naval personnel. This history of suppression shifts the emphasis from political and diplomatic contexts to the experiences of naval officers tasked with the delivery of the anti-slavery message, positioning them at the heart of Britain’s abolitionist campaign on the West African coast. Through officers’ narratives and personal testimonies – found in letters, journals, report books and diaries – it examines the reactions, relations and encounters of these agents of change, and their contributions to the exchange of information crucial to Britain’s anti-slavery efforts in West Africa. The personal, social and cultural experiences of naval officers provide insight into attitudes towards the key themes of Britain’s abolitionist mission, namely anti-slavery beliefs, burgeoning empire, and national identity. In their responsibilities to confront the human trauma of the slave trade and liberate enslaved Africans, officers engaged with humanitarian ideals and anti-slavery rhetoric. These ideas had significant impact on how they conceived their identity as Britons and the nature of their duty as naval personnel, but could be undermined by their disgust at the conditions of service on the West African coast. Officers were also at the forefront of Britain’s broader anti-slavery assault on shore, intended to reform West African society to European, ‘civilised’ standards. In their encounters with slavery and African peoples, officers faced numerous concerns, including concepts of racial identity, paternalism and the true meanings of freedom.

▼ The Poor Always with You: Poverty in an Age of Emancipation, 1833-1865 is an inquiry into the entangled histories of slavery and poverty. It begins with the near-simultaneous passage of the Slavery Abolition Act and the Poor Law Amendment Act in Britain in the 1830s, and continues through the Civil War era in the United States in the 1860s, exploring how Americans and Britons confronted the specter of poverty during an era of slave emancipation. It tells a story, too, of how efforts to manage working people – to mobilize as well as maintain them – spurred numerous Americans and Britons to formulate ideas and practices that linked the conditions of slavery and poverty, in locations that ranged widely across the United States and the British Empire. This dissertation thus investigates the ways in which the lives of poor and enslaved people were imagined to – and did – intertwine during a period of profound change. This is a history that traces how the problems of slavery and poverty were bound up with one another in struggles over the economic future of the Anglo-American world. The scholarly consensus holds that most Americans and Britons sharply delineated the problems of slavery and poverty. This study affords a new perspective on the economic imagination, illuminating how an array of transnational operatives argued that the problems of slavery and poverty intersected. In addition, many histories of emancipation trace how free labor supplanted slave labor as the engine of the global economy. This study challenges this narrative of transition by highlighting how the practices used to manage slaves were also used to mobilize destitute free laborers, both before and after the abolition of slavery. Altogether, this dissertation suggests that probing the entangled histories of poverty and slavery is at once to reflect on the mutable construction of moral problems, to rethink the assumed boundaries of slavery and freedom, and to reassess the economic significance of the working poor, enslaved and free.

▼ The commencement of the Victorian period in the 1830s coincided with the abolition of chattel slavery in the British colonies. Consequently, modern readers have tended to focus on how the Victorians identified themselves with slavery’s abolition and either denied their past involvement with slavery or imagined that slave past as insurmountably distant. “Willing Slaves: The Victorian Novel and the Afterlife of British Slavery” argues, however, that colonial slavery survived in the Victorian novel in a paradoxical form that I term “willing slavery.” A wide range of Victorian novelists grappled with memories of Britain’s slave past in ways difficult for modern readers to recognize because their fiction represented slaves as figures whose bondage might seem, counterintuitively, self-willed. Nineteenth-century Britons produced fictions of “willing slavery” to work through the contradictions inherent to nineteenth-century individualism. As a fictional subject imagined to take pleasure in her own subjection, the willing slave represented a paradoxical figure whose most willful act was to give up her individuality in order to maintain cherished emotional bonds. This figure should strike modern readers as a contradiction in terms, at odds with the violence and dehumanization of chattel slavery. But for many significant Victorian writers, willing slavery was a way of bypassing contradictions still familiar to us today: the Victorian individualist was meant to be atomistic yet sympathetic, possessive yet sheltered from market exchange, a monad most at home within the collective unit of the family. By contrast, writers as diverse as John Stuart Mill, Charlotte Brontë, Charles Dickens, and George Eliot located willing slavery in a pre-Victorian history where social life revolved, they imagined, around obligation and familial attachments rather than individual freedom. Rooted in this fictive past, the willing slave had no individual autonomy or self-possession, but was defined instead by a different set of contradictions: a radical dependency and helpless emotional bondage that could nonetheless appear willing and willful, turning this fictional enslavement itself into an expression of the will. For Dickens, willing slavery provided an image of social interdependency that might heal the ills of the modern world by offering what one All the Year Round author described as “a better slavery than loveless freedom.” For novelists such as Brontë and Eliot who were no less critical of Victorian individualism, however, fantasies of willing slavery became the very fiction that their work aimed to dissolve. Chapter One argues that Frances Trollope’s groundbreaking antislavery fiction mirrors West Indian slave narratives in describing the slave plantation as coldly mechanical, and then extends this vision to portray early industrial England as an emotionally deprived social world similarly in need of repair. In the second chapter, I argue that Dickens responds to that emotional deprivation, and the replacement of traditional…

The dissertation employs an interdisciplinary methodology that integrates research from Atlantic world history, historical archaeology and cultural geography. The resulting insights are key to supporting the central arguments and conclusions.

At the close of the American Revolution thousands of American Loyalists were forced into exile and made their way to British colonies beyond the United States. Most of the Loyalists landed in British North America, particularly the Maritimes. Along with the trauma and losses of the conflict, the Loyalists brought with them a way of doing things, an intense political history, and ideas concerning the imperial structure that framed their everyday lives. This dissertation is a study of the Loyalists. Specifically, it explores a prominent Loyalist and his journey from Massachusetts to Nova Scotia along with family members, servants, and labourers, including enslaved persons. A central objective of the dissertation is to illuminate the story of the enslaved and magnify their place in Nova Scotia’s eighteenth century colonial history narrative. The objective is addressed by adapting a holistic perspective that considers a single geography – the plantation. The holistic perspective, developed through an interdisciplinary methodology, explores the people, places and culture that formed the Loyalist plantation and were informed by it. The picture that emerges is one that puts into place the structure and organization of a Loyalist plantation in the late eighteenth century. This dissertation argues that an interdisciplinary approach is fundamental when exploring the subject of the plantation and its inhabitants in Nova Scotia. Through study of the slaveholder and the comparison of his plantation spaces, the dissertation argues for Loyalist continuity. Such continuity confirmed a slaveholding culture during the mass migration. Finally, this dissertation argues that the Loyalist period can be described as Nova Scotia’s Age of Slavery. The Loyalist migration represents an unprecedented arrival of enslaved persons to the province. Furthermore, the Loyalist migration represents the unprecedented arrival of a political and ideological framework that carried within it perceptions of race and seeds of discrimination that took root.

▼ This paper examines conspicuous consumption, race, socialization, identity, and historical ties. The purpose of this research is to find the salient aspects that affect conspicuous consumption patterns amongst racial and ethnic lines. Much of the previous research that has been completed on African American conspicuous consumption focuses on the individual’s motivation to purchase. This literature often attempts to incorporate cultural explanations. Examples of current cultural explanations include a propensity for materialism (Podoshen, Andrzejewski, Hunt: 2014) and the need to overcome stigmatization (Crosby, 2012). In addition to these factors, in my research, I integrate Post-Traumatic Slave Syndrome (PTSS), and Identity-Formation theories such as Role Theory, Communication Theory of Identity (Jung 2011), Cooley’s (1902) Looking-Glass Self and Erving Goffman’s (1956) Dramaturgy to explain consumerism by African Americans. Post- Traumatic Slave Syndrome is utilized in this study to look at how the history of slavery continues to impact the modern African American person at the micro-level. By adding a historical component, I analyze how lingering effects of slavery may influence African Americans consumption habits. By assessing how racialized socialization practices impact the formation of identity, I attempt to make a connection between society’s social structure and its influence on the individual’s self-concept. I utilized theoretical perspectives at both the individual and societal level, which I contend influence shopping practices. I assert that the process of engaging in the consumer culture is unique to African Americans because of the historical implications which caused their marginality. I theorize that conspicuous consumption is utilized as a tool to combat these preexisting social structures and boundaries which block their upward mobility. The goal of this research is to illuminate how certain features of racialized social practices, such as institutional blockage, influence the individual identity and self-concept which impact spending propensity. In sum, I hope to expand on the current scholarship by providing alternative cultural explanations aside from materiality as the motivator for conspicuous consumption. My study employs quantitative data collection methods, which included a 113-question on-line survey. Respondents were mainly assessed in Lubbock, Texas, as students of Texas Tech University. Participants are between the ages of 18-64. incorporating data from 393 respondents, with 103 being African American. Based on DeGruy’s (2005) work on Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome, I utilize measures to assess racist socialization, ever-present anger, vacant (self) esteem, and materialism. Additionally, I use the personal-enacted identity gap scale and measure respondent’s current and aspired social class to test the impact of race/ethnic identity on economic resources and budget-management.

▼ This thesis builds the micro foundations of the first modern social movement: the movement for the abolition of the slave trade in the early 19th century British context. I derive theories of action from the historical literature, and use work from historical sociology and movement theory to understand the decision to petition for abolition. Two major empirical undertakings are employed to adjudicate between different theories of action accounting for abolitionist petitioning. First, zooming in on Manchester, I deploy the signatures of an abolitionist petition to find the social-structural drivers of abolitionist mobilization. Through a careful reconstruction of the city’s historic geography, I place over 10000 residents in physical space along with important buildings, such as churches, inns and taverns: focal points that provided the basis of associational life and early civil society, places where politics was done at the time. I delineate the limits of the impact of the Quaker congregation, and demonstrate that in fact these focal points induced the spatial-clustering of abolitionist petitioners. Furthermore, I reveal that economic interests are not among key drivers of abolitionist petitioning, as no clear occupational-gradient is found among petitioners. Besides the theoretical contributions, I use innovative ways to test which social relationships were crucial for petitioning. Second, zooming out on the national petitioning campaign I use self-collected data on petitions form the Journals of the British Parliament to study the movement at the macro level. The analysis shows that contact with the London-based central movement-organization was key for the success of the first campaign, but it also reveals that the second campaign relied more on "horizontal" connections rather than hierarchical ones tying provincial towns to London. Second, I confirm that non-conformist religious organizations were pivotal for the inception, and scaling of the national campaign, but the Quaker church seem to exert more important and continuous influence compared to the Wesleyan Methodist organization. Last but not least, I show that industrialization plays a key, and increasingly important role in the campaign for abolition.
