SUMMARY:WIGH Fellows Presentation: "Financing Slave Coffee Plantations in Imperial Brazil"
DESCRIPTION:<p>	<span>"Financing Slave Coffee Plantations in Imperial Brazil"</span><br><strong><a data-url="https://wigh.wcfia.harvard.edu/people/gabriel-gonzalez-sterman" href="internal:/people/gabriel-gonzalez-sterman" title="">Gabriel Sterman</a></strong><span>, WIGH Global Fellow; PhD Candidate in History, University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. </span></p><p>	<em><span style="background:white"><span><span style="color:black">This research examines how Brazil's boom in coffee production between 1831-1850 happened during a period the traditional historiography has marked as economically "backward." Sterman argues that this view lacks a systemic approach and makes the connection between the Brazillian coffee plantations, United States firms, British banks, slave trading, and the Imperial State.</span></span></span></em></p><p>	<span>Please register below to attend.
