The American Colonization Society and the Creation of the Liberian State
This study traces the historical roots of Liberia's political, economic, and social instituions. The author aims to apply a new historical perspective to the nation's history, and by identifying some of its critical problems, provide an empirical guideline for the present and future generations of Liberia. The text proposes that Liberia's institutions, though shaped by other factors as well, were largely extensions of the institutional values inh…
Slavery and the Peculiar Solution
The American Colonization Society Civilizing Mission in Liberia and John B. Russwurm, 1829–1836
Russwurm’s activities in Liberia can be better examined in the context of his American experiences together with the evolving Liberia’s high moral rectitude in the early nineteenth century.

The accounts also shared light on why Russwurm responded to the MSCS initiative as he did. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keyw…

Transatlantic Trade and the Coastal Area of Pre‐Liberia
Transatlantic trade affected the coastal area of West Africa that became Liberia in 1822. The impact of that trade has confused historians of the region, particularly the social and economic effects the trade had on the Vai, Kru, Glebo, and other ethnic groups. Before the arrival of Europeans in the fifteenth century, coastal pre‐Liberia had been affected by internal and external social dynamics. The Mande, Mel, and Kwa were the first linguistic …
