2769 History, Narrative, and Methods of Perspective: Writing the Atlantic Slave Trade. This paper traces the shifting value systems that have composed the history of the slave trade; this is, therefore, not specifically about the events that occurred during the activity of capitalism and slavery, geographies and cultures. It is about the texts, reading the narratives as methods for writing about history. As such, this paper considers history as a history of its own invention, through the differently constructed narrative accounts that reflect changing social and cultural value systems, and how these have been written in-relation to the activities of the slave trade. 14.5 pgs. 11 f/c. 9b.

3691 Dutch and British Colonial Rulers in South Africa. This paper discusses Dutch and British Colonial rule in South Africa. It argues that, to a large extent, British colonial rulers allowed greater autonomy to Africans than did the Dutch. This did not mean, however, that they were more humanitarian. Although there were elements of British rule that were certainly less racist and oppressive, the British adopted many of the same attitudes and policies toward Black people as did their predecessors. Nonetheless, the more liberal attitudes, despite their contradictions, provided a foundation for future changes. 5 pgs. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
