Description

Historians have examined the American Civil War and its aftermath for more than a century, yet little work has situated this important era in a global context. Contributors to this volume broaden the scope of Reconstruction by viewing it not as an insular process but as an international phenomenon. Here, three leading international scholars explore how emancipation, nationhood and nationalism, and the spread of market capitalism--issues central to the period in the United States--were interwoven with global patterns of political, social, and economic change. Rafael Marquese explores the integrated trajectories of slavery in the United States and Brazil, tracing the connections, interactions, and transformations of the coffee and cotton economies in both countries. Don Doyle discusses how Secretary of State William Seward eliminated a possible Confederate revival and hostile European presence supported by Mexico's Maximilian regime. Edward Rugemer reconsiders how Jamaica's Morant Bay Rebellion influenced Reconstruction by demonstrating that emancipation without citizenship, political rights, or economic opportunities can have violent consequences. This volume suggests new discussions about how the Civil War reshaped the United States's relationship to the world and how large-scale international developments influenced the country's transition from slavery to freedom. Contributors: William A. Link Don H. Doyle Rafael Marquese Edward Rugemer A volume in the series Frontiers of the American South, edited by William A. Link
