Sismondi and Slavery in Etudes sur Economie Politique
The Emancipator notes Sismondi’s second volume on political economy discusses domestic slavery in various nations. A New York American European correspondent, Mr Walsh, reports Sismondi may rely on prejudiced European travelers for his views on American slavery and may not fairly judge the system. He argues that even prominent American figures have condemned slavery, and outlines the system’s glaring traits as observed by outsiders.
