Davis's 1975 work looks to answer a question that were all but overlooked up to that point. Slavery had been accepted in American culture for years and years. So why have a movement all of the sudden rise up in the commercial era dialling for the slave trade to be abolished? Could it have been that individuals had suddenly become more enlightened and humanitarian? Or have there been other more powerful as well as perhaps self-interested reasons for this rapid about-turn? The Problem of Slavery in age Trend, 1770-1823 offers an intensive profile of the emergence of the antislavery activity in Britain and america. But what makes the task unique is just how it explores and unpicks the sophisticated human relationships between changes inside our understanding of what is moral, the impact of political action, and its effect on cultural change. The Problem of Slavery in age Trend, 1770-1823 has received the esteemed US National Reserve Prize, the Albert J. Beveridge Prize, and the Bancroft Award.
