Slavery, Capitalism, and Politics in the Antebellum Republic: Volume 1, Commerce and Compromise, 1820–1850
Ashworth, John (University of East Anglia)
This is the first of a two-volume treatment of slavery, capitalism and politics in the forty years before the Civil War. It is both a Marxist reinterpretation of American political and economic development and a synthesis of existing scholarship on the economics of slavery, the origins of abolitionism, the proslavery argument and the second party system.
