The Cambridge World History of Slavery released by Cambridge University Press

Congratulations to Timothy Coates on his essay “European Forced Labor in the Early Modern Era”  in The Cambridge World History of Slavery edited by David Eltis and Stanley L.Engerman.
“Volume 3 , AD 1420-AD 1804, The Cambridge World History of Slavery is a collection of essays exploring the various manifestations of coerced labor in Africa, Asia, and the Americas between the opening up of the Atlantic World and the formal creation of the new nation of Haiti.

The authors, well-known authorities in their respective fields, place slavery in the foreground of the collection but also examine other types of coerced labor. Essays are organized both nationally and thematically and cover the major empires, coerced migration, slave resistance, gender, demography, law, and the economic significance of coerced labor.”
