Captain Cook agrégation anglais 2020 option civilisation post 37: Slavery and empire
This podcast from the BBC looks at the views of some historians on slavery and empire, especially in the 18th century. very useful context.
It seems to me that the historian who wants to put transatlantic slavery in
a specific place in history is rather badly treated by the others, but the podcast is nevertheless well worth a listen.
