New Perspectives on Slave Ownership and Experiences in the Americas

While the plantation accounts for 90% of slave ownership and experience in the Americas, its centrality to the common conceptions of slavery in the Atlantic world has arguably led to an oversimplified understanding of its multifarious forms and complex dynamics. This book explores nontraditional forms of slavery that existed outside the plantation system in the Americas from the 17th to the 19th century to demonstrate the complicated pluralities of slave ownership and experiences throughout this time and region.

A Global History of the New Campuses of the 1960s Edited by Miles Taylor, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany & Jill Pellew, Institute of Historical Research, UK In a remarkable decade of public investment in higher education, some 300 new university campuses were established worldwide between 1961 and 1970. This volume offers a comparative and connective global history of these institutions, illustrating how their establishment, intellectual output and pedagogical experimentation sheds light on the social and cultural typography of the 'long 1960s'. Containing not only an impressive geographic treatment - with case studies in Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia - this book also explores how these universities influenced a broad range of academic disciplines, from the humanities and social sciences to the physical sciences and technology.

Inventing the Third World

In Search of Freedom for the Postwar Global South Edited by Jeremy Adelman, Princeton University, USA & Gyan Prakash, Princeton University, USA The end of the Second World War and the eclipse of empires brought a wave of efforts to reimagine the future world order. When nation states emerging from colonial rule met at Bandung to chart alternative destinies and challenge global inequalities, they were reimagining a new world order; less hierarchical, more pluralistic and more distributive. This volume considers the alternative visions put forth by the third world at the close of WWII to recover their world-changing aspirations as well as its cultural and intellectual breakthroughs. This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections. com. It is funded by Princeton University, USA.
