Freedoms and Slaveries in the Atlantic World (14th-20th c.)
STARACO Summer University (STAtus, ‘Race’ and Colour in the Atlantic World from Antiquity to the Present)
Today, bibliography on the phenomenon of slavery in the Atlantic is incredibly vast. However, our research group on the definition of hierarchies of colours and of "races" cannot avoid addressing this subject. It is clear that the deportation of millions of African captives towards the Americas constituted the most powerful impetus for the racialisation of slavery, leading to the ‘natural’ representation according to which all slaves are black. This simple equation, however, covers over a complex historical process that this research conference seeks to analyze more closely. We must begin by ‘denaturalizing’ the concept of slavery. The term slavery, in fact, includes situations that are very different in time and space, which the various specialists in our research network will be able to compare.
