Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume shows that slaves acquired by some ruling households were incorporated into patterns of kinship. Colonial abolitionist measures did not even try to manumit these slaves; they restructured ideologies of marriage and succession instead and eroded the status of slave-descended members over time.
