Abstract

This paper examines the causes and consequences of colonial expansion launched in the African continent with the capture and trading of slaves. It also studies the relations of this system with slavery in the Arab world, and its repercussions in the European and American economies. Differences of the slave system within the Arabic World during the last decades of the 18th century and in the 19th and 20th centuries are also examined.
