- W2340236462 abstract "The formations of African migrant communities in nineteenth-century Freetown were connected to specific tensions of forced labor within British antislavery campaigns on the Atlantic. On one hand, Freetown was unique among British colonies because of its antislavery liberal constitutional framework. The colony was a key site for an Atlantic system of European courts established by British legislation and bilateral treaties for the abolition of the slave trade. Those antislavery courts freed an estimated 65,000 African slaves from 1819-1846. Prior to that period, a British vice-admiralty court in Freetown had adjudicated the liberation of some 10,000 Africans. On the other hand, the processes of liberating and resettling Africans in Freetown have been described as utter developmental failures that amounted to colossal human rights violations. Scholarly explanations of the causes of these tensions have focused on the uses of legislation to control and restrict the movement of Africans after emancipation. In this paper, I take a different approach. Instead of treating rights restrictions as cause, I consider the extent to which those restrictions and forced labor regulations were themselves effects of colonial approaches to human rights redemption and practices of free labor mobility in Freetown." @default.
