Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the dynamic between the slave states and free states in the United States, examining the economic, political and social consequences of slavery in the decades leading up to the Civil War. The author argues that, despite the abolition of the slave trade in 1808, the institution of slavery continued to exert a profound influence on American society and politics, shaping the nation's economic development, its territorial expansion and its political divisions. The author provides a detailed analysis of the economic and political power wielded by the slave states, arguing that their dominance in the federal government allowed them to shield slavery from abolitionist attacks and to expand its reach into new territories. The author also explores the resistance to slavery in the North, arguing that the abolitionist movement played a significant role in the growing tensions between the slave and free states. Ultimately, the book provides a nuanced and deeply researched exploration of the role of slavery in the American political landscape and suggests that it was a central factor in the outbreak of the Civil War.
