This open access handbook offers a comprehensive and global perspective on the practice of slavery throughout history. By examining slavery in various societies, we gain insights into its development and functioning, which played a significant role in world civilizations. Traditionally, research has focused on the Atlantic world, but this collection aims to shed light on slavery in the Americas, ancient, medieval, North and sub-Saharan African, Near Eastern, and Asian societies. Slavery connected countries and regions through power-based relationships, while simultaneously dividing societies by class, race, ethnicity, and cultural group. The authors highlight the slave-trading routes that crisscrossed Africa, helped integrate the Mediterranean world, connected Indian Ocean societies, and fused the Atlantic world. The handbook is divided into five parts, each portraying the evolution of slavery from antiquity to the contemporary era. It encourages readers to recognize similarities and differences between various manifestations of slavery throughout history. With a truly global coverage of slavery, the handbook serves as a comprehensive and transnational resource for researchers interested in slavery, the history of labor, and anthropology.
