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. 410 $aCritical, Connected Histories 606 $aTechnology & Engineering / Agriculture$2bisacsh 606 $aTechnology 615 7$aTechnology & Engineering / Agriculture 615 0$aTechnology. 702 $aSchrikker$b Alicia 702 $aWickramasinghe$b Nira 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910645989003321 996 $aBeing a Slave$92986978 997 $aUNINA
