Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Chima Korieh and Femi J. Kolapo eds., The Aftermath of Slavery: Transitions and Transformations in Southeastern Nigeria (Trenton, NJ: Africa World Press, 2007). iv + 261pp. Maps, pictures, tables, index. The abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave trade produced far- reaching political, social and economic consequences in Europe, Africa and the New World. And scholars have done considerably well in examining this aspect of world history. A close look at the large and growing body of literature on this subject indicates that more studies have to be conducted on the impact of the abolition on specific regions of the three continents - especially in Africa. In other words, research agendas that favor the examination of the subject in specific parts of the continents is capable of enhancing better knowledge of the effects of the abolition of the trans- Atlantic slave trade from a micro- study perspective. The Aftermath of Slavery, a ten-chapter volume edited by Chima Korieh (Marquette University) and Femi J. Kolapo (University of Guelph) fills this yarning gap in the historiography of African history, African Diaspora history and Pan-African Studies. Thus both specialist and nonspecialist readers will find the data and arguments of the contributors helpful in understanding the impact of the abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave trade on the peoples of modern southeastern Nigeria. Instructively, Korieh and Kolapo add value to the content of the book as they conduct a nuance review of existing literature on abolition of the slave trade in Africa at large. This exercise helps to adequately locate the contribution of this book to scholarship while creating an easy and digestible argument and narrative for readers who want a jumpstart on this huge and expanding field. In chapter one Waibinte Wariboko parades a large body of useful archival materials to explicate how the abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave trade introduced new forms of tension between African middlemen and the rulers on the one hand and British traders and consuls on the other. To be sure, the new pattern of relations between and among Africans and Europeans, which culminated into the collapse of indigenous political authority in this part of modern Nigeria, represents one of the numerous phases of Africa's interactions with the wider world. And the creative ingenuity of Africans as Wariboko has shown reflected in the ways they responded to the introduction of palm oil and other articles of trade generally christened as legitimate commerce. In his chapter, Korieh examines the implications of the transition on gender relations, arguing that: While the political and economic impacts of the transition have received significant treatment in the literature, several social formations that followed in the wake of the transition such as the implication for gender relations have not (p. 42). Korieh is able to show that women like men were active participants in the new forms of social and political relations of the period. U.D. Anyanwu identifies the inadequate scholarly attention given to the demographic impact of the abolition and thus examines two settlement patterns, which emerged as a result of the abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave trade in southeastern Nigeria. …

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
