| Description: |
A study of the institution and system of slavery intended for students of sociology, social anthropology and African studies. The author provides an analysis of the reproduction of the social order in societies relying on slavery. |
| Synopsis: |
This study of the institution and system of slavery was first published in France in 1986. Drawing upon his knowledge of African society, Professor Meillassoux provides an analysis of the reproduction of the social order in societies relying heavily on slavery: within tribes, marauding bands and nations, and between the classes and sexes. He also examines the rivalry between military and aristocratic groupings and the merchant classes who conducted the slave trade. |
