Spis treści:
  • Ending slavery and creating empire in Africa: from the "Indelible stain" to the "light of civilization"
  • From law to practice: "certain excesses of severity"
  • The critiques and defenses of modern slavery: from without and within, above and below
  • Mobility and tactical flight: of workers, chiefs, and villages
  • Targeting chiefs: from "fictitious obedience" to "extraordinary political disorder"
  • Seniority and subordination: disciplining youth and controlling women's labor
  • An "absolute freedom" circumscribed and circumvented: "Employers chosen of their own free will"
  • Upward mobility: "improvement of one's social condition"
  • Conclusion: forced labor's legacy.
