Description

This scholarly work examines Britain's complex and often overlooked relationship with slavery in Brazil during the nineteenth century. Despite the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833, individual Britons and British commercial enterprises continued to own enslaved people and finance slavery in Brazil for decades afterwards. The book explores the economic foundations and commercial networks that sustained this entanglement, analysing how British anti-slavery policy coexisted with ongoing British investment in Brazilian slavery. Through detailed historical research, it traces the material basis of this contradiction and explains how British slaveholding interests in the Americas finally ended only with Brazil's abolition of slavery in 1888. Essential reading for understanding Britain's imperial complicity in the transatlantic slave trade and the gap between official abolitionist policy and private economic practice.
