Aprašymas

Drawing on the recently published slave registers of Suriname and Curaçao, this volume offers unprecedented insights into the lives of enslaved people in the final decades before abolition of slavery in 1863. Bringing together innovative research from senior and junior scholars, it examines the living standards, survival, and demography of enslaved communities in Suriname and the Dutch Caribbean. The volume reveals how these communities endured extreme living conditions and experienced among the lowest life expectancy at birth ever recorded in modern history. Demonstrating the extraordinary research potential of the unique Dutch slave registers, it offers many new perspectives on slavery in the Americas.
