Caroline Oudin-Bastide et Philippe Steiner, Calcul et morale
The title of this book might seem to signify a cliometric study on the profitability of French slavery during the latter part of the eighteenth and first half of the nineteenth century. However, Caroline Oudin-Bastide and Philippe Steiner clearly point out in their introduction that this is not the case. In reading this work it becomes apparent that there is in fact inadequate statistical evidence for a cliometric approach to slavery in the Frenc…

The Torcy Canal and the Failure of Development in early Nineteenth Century French Guiana
Entrepris au début des années 1800, le canalTorcy, creusé à partir de la rivière Mahury, au sud-est de Cayenne, avait vocation à ouvrir à la culture une plaine fertile afin de revitaliser l'économie de la Guyane française. Au début des années 1830, un tiers de la production de sucre de la Guyane provenait des plantations installées sur ses rives, mais il commençait déjà à souffrir de l'envasement et des inondations, de désaccords entre les plante…

Le second mouvement pour l'abolition de l'esclavage colonial français
Ce ne furent ni les facteurs économiques, ni la résistance des esclaves eux-mêmes qui amenèrent l'abolition définitive de l'esclavage dans les anciennes colonies françaises, mais bien le développement au cours de la monarchie de Juillet d'une culture abolitionniste qui réalisa ses buts dès que la Révolution de 1848 eut renversé le répressif régime orléaniste. Prudent et graduelliste pendant les années 1830, le mouvement abolitionniste français co…
Associative Socialism and Slave Emancipation in French Guiana, 1839-1848
Le projet d'association lancé par Jules Lechevalier dans les années 1840, et rapidement récupéré par les gros planteurs guyanais, prétendait être un moyen d'abolir l'esclavage et de créer une nouvelle façon d'organiser le travail selon des théories socialistes de l'époque. L'historiographie courante a tendance à accepter cette interprétation. Néanmoins, un examen approfondi de ce processus démontre qu'il n 'avait aucune parenté avec les idées fou…

French anti-slavery under the Restoration
The Société de la morale chrétienne, a Christian philanthropie society which flourished during the last décade of the Restoration, is primarily known as a group which neglected the issue of slave emancipation while helping to launch the nineteenth century movement against the French slave trade. A detailed examination of its works, however, shows that the Morale chrétienne was also the first organization of the 1800s to promote libération for Fra…
Slavery and the Venality of the July Monarchy Press
Though much has been written about press censorship following the Revolution of 1830, little concrete information exists on the financing of the July Monarchy press, and even less on its venality.' What we do know about the funding of French newspapers at this time usually amounts to little more than statistics on the receipts and expenditures of individual dailies in given years, such as for La Presse in 1836, L'A telier in 1840-41, and Le Siecl…

French Policy towards Trading with African and Brazilian Slave Merchants, 1840–1853
During the 1840s and early 1850s, when France was employing either the mutual right of search with Great Britain or independent naval squadrons to suppress direct French participation in the transatlantic slave trade, French governments condoned commercial relations between French traders and Brazilian or African slave dealers. As of 1840 French merchant vessels were involved in carrying goods destined for the slave trade from France or Brazil to…

France, Great Britain, and the Repression of the Slave Trade, 1841-1845
Modern historians generally agree that during the so-called entente cordiale of the early 1840s Anglo-French relations were anything but cordial. Despite the mutual desire of Lord Aberdeen in England and Fran(ois Guizot in France to realize a friendly understanding after the Eastern crisis of 1840, relations between the Tory government and the Soult-Guizot ministry were raked by a series of trials and tribulations, such as those arising from the …

French Diplomacy and the First Schleswig-Holstein Crisis
The course of French diplomatic activity during the Schleswig-Holstein crisis of 1863-64 is well known as a result of articles written some sixty years ago by Edward Driault and Pierre Muret.1 Relatively little, however, is known about France's policy toward the so-called first SchleswigHolstein crisis of 1848-50, a crisis which anticipated and set the stage for the more notable developments of 1863-64. Moreover, there seems to be little consensu…

L'abolition de l'esclavage par la IIe République et ses effets en Louisiane (1848-1858)
Cette étude consiste en une analyse des répercussions de l'article 8 du décret du 27 avril 1848 abolissant l'esclavage dans les colonies et possessions françaises. L'article 8 menaçait les citoyens français résidant en pays étrangers esclavagistes, et eux-mêmes possesseurs d'esclaves, de la perte de leur nationalité s'ils ne se désaisissaient pas de leurs esclaves dans un délai de trois ans. Les personnes les plus affectées par la clause 8 furent…
