Dutch families, institutions, and governments are increasingly interested in the role their predecessors played in this history of colonialism and enslavement. This book is a history of De Nederlandsche Bank in which particular attention is paid to its links with slavery, both as a factor in the economy and as a subject of political debate. Because De Nederlandsche Bank served the Dutch ministery of Colonies and consequently followed Dutch trade interests, the bank's history intersects with the history of slavery. The investigation in this book focuses not only upon DNB's formal involvement but also on the private involvement of its directors. In addition, it examines whether the bank and its directors played any role in the abolition of slavery. 606 $aAntislavery movements 606 $aSlave trade$zUnited States$xFinance 606 $aSlavery$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aHISTORY / General$2bisacsh 615 0$aAntislavery movements. 615 0$aSlave trade$xFinance. 615 0$aSlavery$xEconomic aspects 615 7$aHISTORY / General. 676 $a306.36209492 700 $aFatah-Black$b Karwan$01544498 701 $aLauret$b Lauren$f1991-$01544499 701 $aTol$b Joris van den$01544500 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765516303321 996 $aServing the Chain$93798780 997 $aUNINA
