  • Emancipation

    Peter KolchinBOOKEmancipation2024

    This book compares the process and consequences of abolition in the two largest nineteenth-century emancipations: the United States South and Russia. Despite apparent differences in context—Russia was an autocracy, the U.S. was a democracy—there were striking similarities in the responses of both masters and bondspeople to the new order. In both countries, the terms of emancipation led to lengthy struggles over the meaning of freedom and especial…

  • Rethinking the Civil War Era

    Open AccessPeter KolchinARTICLEJournal of American History2019

    Noting that “taking stock of where we are and where we are going can prove useful,” Paul D. Escott has written a book in which he examines recent works on the Civil War era and discusses new interpretive directions. His book is short—140 pages of text, divided into seven chapters—but it is indeed useful (p. xi). Much of what Escott has to say about changing historical interpretations—especially concerning the coming and the nature of the Civil Wa…

    Whiteness Studies. Over the past two decades, scholars in the social sciences and humanities have increasingly focused on ' whiteness ' as a new way of exploring race and racism in America.

  • The Big Picture

    Peter KolchinARTICLEThe American Historical Review2000

    LET ME BEGIN BY SAYING that I applaud David Brion Davis's commitment to getting away from a parochial view of American slavery by looking at what he terms Big Picture. I am enthusiastic about his evolving course on the rise, development, and fall of the Atlantic slave systems; indeed, I wish that I could take this course. In his essay, he has, with characteristic clarity, shown us how to look at slavery from a and at the same time has skillfully …

    I have taught the first half of the United States history survey course some fifteen times, during a teaching career that has covered almost thirty years at four different state universities. I have assigned several different textbooks in these classes, never with total satisfaction. As the number of textbooks has proliferated, it has become more difficult to assess their relative quality. Students seem to dislike them all: whichever I assign, th…

    George M Fredrickson, Peter Kolchin et al.ARTICLEReviews in American History1994

    Historians of the United States are becoming increasingly comparative (or at least international) in their approaches to subjects. Especially in social, cultural, and intellectual history, it is now commonplace to refer to analogous developments elsewhere in the world and to combat exaggerated notions of American exceptionalism by indicating that what happened here was part of a transnational pattern of development. But cross-cultural comparative…
