Stuart B. Schwartz looks at this change while explaining why historians must continue to place their ethnographic approach in the context of enslavement as an oppressive social and economic system. Schwartz demonstrates the complexity of the system by reconsidering work, resistance, kinship, and relations between enslaved persons and peasants. As he shows, enslaved people played a role in shaping not only their lives but Brazils institutionalized system of slavery by using their own actions and attitudes to place limits on slaveholders.A bold analysis of changing ideas in the field, Slaves, Peasants, and Rebels provides insights on how the shifting power relationship between enslaved people and slaveholders reshaped the contours of Brazilian society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51936323961120,"sku":"NEW0252065492","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/slaves-peasants-and-rebels-reconsidering-brazilian-slavery-blacks-in-the-new-world-0252065492","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
