Este artigo trata do "resgate" de cativos africanos no império francês antes e depoisda segunda emancipação nas colônias. O sistema - que funcionava sem o consentimentoformal do trabalhador africano em relação aos termos do contrato - visava suprir asplantations das Ilhas Reunião, da Guiana Francesa e das ilhas do Caribe Francês e eralegalmente estruturado em torno da alforria: os trabalhadores eram "libertados" sob acondição de migrar e trabalhar por um determinado tempo. O artigo demonstra que o sistemade resgate se beneficiava das estruturas estabelecidas pelo tráfico escravo na África e erasancionado pelo governo francês mesmo após a abolição.Abstract: Manumitting without freeing: African slaves' redemption in the French colonialempire in the nineteenth century.The article presents "rachat" (redemption) of enslaved Africans in the French Empire beforeand after second slave emancipation in the colonies.
