Produktinformationen zu „Should Current Generations Make Reparation for Slavery? (ePub)“
During the age of empire, European and American colonists perpetrated one of history s most monstrous crimes: slavery. Millions of Africans were subjected to forced abduction, misery and death as part of the brutal Atlantic slave trade. However, since the perpetrators are long dead, should current generations make reparation for this historic injustice? In this book, Janna Thompson uses three case studies France s treatment of Haiti, Britain s role in the African slave trade, and the plight of African Americans to address these questions. She makes a nuanced case for the necessity of reparations, but argues that the exact form they take should vary from case to case, depending on factors both principled and practical. This engaging book is a highly readable introduction to the issues for students and general readers grappling with the complexities of reparative justice and our responsibility for the darkest aspects of our past.
