Reviews

Ribi Forclaz draws an important connection between antifascism and anticolonialism that largely explains why antislavery activists struggled to define their role in the post-war era of decolonization. She persuasively shows that the turning point for antislavery activism was not the Second World War but the Italo-Ethiopian war before it. --Kevin Grant, Journal of Modern History
