Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonialism, Slavery, Reparations and Trade: Remedying the âe~Pastâe(tm)? Addresses how reparations might be obtained for the legacy of the Trans Atlantic slave trade. This collection lends weight to the argument that liability is not extinguished on the death of the plaintiffs or perpetrators. Arguing that the impact of the slave trade is continuing and therefore contemporary, it maintains that this trans-generational debt remains, and must be addressed. Bringing together leading scholars, practitioners, diplomats, and activists, Colonialism, Slavery, Reparations and Trade provides a powerful and challenging exploration of the variety of available âe" legal, relief-type, economic-based and multi-level âe" strategies, and apparent barriers, to achieving reparations for slavery.
