Slavery and American Economic Development - Walter Lynwood Fleming Lectures in Southern History Reprint edition
Gavin Wright
Through an analysis of slavery as an economic institution, Gavin Wright presents an innovative look at the economic divergence between North and South in the antebellum era. He draws a distinction between slavery as a form of work organisation, the aspect that has dominated historical debates, and slavery as a set of property rights.
