The volume discusses a variety of qualitative data on the experience of being a slave in order to recover ordinary lives and, crucially, to place this experience in its Asian local context. Building on the rich scholarship on the slave trade, this volume offers a unique perspective that embraces the origin and afterlife of enslavement as well as the imaginaries and representations of slaves rather than the trade in slaves itself.Critical, Connected HistoriesTechnology & Engineering / AgriculturebisacshTechnologyTechnology & Engineering / AgricultureTechnology.Schrikker AliciaWickramasinghe NiraScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910645989003321Being a Slave2986978UNINA
