Slave trade

For this reason, in this work, Olivier Grenouillet seeks to go beyond single studies, statistical analyzes and objective studies (although much still and will continue to require further research in these areas). In doing so, he shifts his focus somewhat from the currently less obscure aspect - the history and workings of the slave trade - to examine, before and after, its effects and consequences, in short, the place and role of the slave trade in history.This approach enables him to present to the general public a summary that addresses, albeit very briefly, the essence of the slave trade, the history of which, with its painful effects on collective memory, is placed within a global perspective.
