La Hausse de Lalouvière’s work explores the French restoration of slavery in its Atlantic colonies in the wake of the first abolition of 1793–94. He frames the restoration of slavery as a politically, legally, and ideologically generative act. Participants in this colloquium will read a chapter from his work in progress.
