| 'There Are No Slaves in France': The Political Culture of Race and Slavery in the Ancient Regime examines the paradox of political antislavery and institutional racism in the century prior to the French Revolution. Black slaves who came to France as domestic servants of colonial masters challenged their servitude in courts. On the basis of the Freedom Principle, a judicial maxim granting freedom to any slave who set foot in the kingdom, hundreds of slaves won their freedom. Sue Peabody shows how the political culture of late Bourbon France created ample opportunities for contestation over the meaning of freedom. Men of letters used the metaphor of slavery to critique the supposed despotism of Louis XV and Louis XVI. In the second half of the century, courts and the crown colluded to erect a series of laws prohibiting the entry of blacks into the metropolis. 'There Are No Slaves in France' shows how both antislavery and anti-black discourses emerged from the tension between France's reification of liberty and its dependence on colonial slavery. |

| Marriage and family are best understood when viewed in historical, economic, political, religious, cultural, and educational context. Families in Context, by Dr. Gene Starbuck, does this better than any other text available. Marriage and Family courses have historically fallen toward one end or the other of the sociological and relationship continuum. This text spans the middle of the spectrum by emphasizing roles and scripts at many levels (societal, personal, mutual). This theoretically and ideologically balanced approach provides students with a look at the interconnections between the family and other institutions, as well as a look at contemporary families, couple formation, construction of families, and problems in families--perspectives that help students put their own family experiences into both personal and societal contexts. The book provides a strong foundation of theory, yet the presentation is engaging and reader-friendly. It is very well written in an objective, non-judgmental way, and deals extremely well with sensitive issues and diversity. It does a better job than other books of addressing the complex social forces that impact the family. The important topics of race/ethnicity and social class, each have their own chapters, as well as being integrated into the other chapters where appropriate. Gender issues are discussed, from a variety of perspectives, throughout the text. |
