- W1993260897 abstract "In 1823 the British Anti-Slavery Society initiated a historic debate in Parliament on ameliorating the conditions of slaves in their West Indian colonies via Imperial law. Because of its unique constitutional status at the time, Trinidad was chosen as the nursery for the launch of that experiment. One of the most compelling arguments for optimism was the widespread assumption of the humaneness of Spanish slave laws. The article examines the background to the selection of Spanish law for the reform of British slavery. It argues that Spanish law had failed to meet the standards of British slavery reform even within the first decade of Trinidad becoming a British colony. It further argues that its selection as a standard for Britain's first ever slave code during the period of Amelioration was progressive in respect of civil rights but anachronistic in terms judicial violence, whether in terms of estate management or strictly criminal matters. The article further explores the new forms of punishment of enslaved persons under the British code as characteristically British, consistent with contemporary race relations, but tempered by a genuine attempt to carry on the spirit of Spanish law, which recognised the humanity of the enslaved." @default.
