Contact seller4-star sellerOctavo, black cloth (hardcover), gilt lettering, illustrated endpapers, xxvi, 204 pp. Very Good, with light rubbing to spine and bookshop's stamp to half-title. From Perspective: This book is about the economic achievements of a preliterature society, the eighteenth-century Negro kingdom of Dahomey. The focus is on the rise of D…ahomey and its adjustment to that unique episode of world commerce, the modern slave trade that erupted in Dahomey's backyard. The perspective of the work as a whole is, however, anything but antiquarian. Conceived as an economic historian's modest contirubtion to meeting the problems of his own age, our analytical sketch is presented in the conviction that a realistic view of great socioeconomic changes, wherever and whenever enacted, broadens out horizon and advances the search for solutions. Yet even if some features of the past would seem to offer lessons for our own time, we must still beware of idealizing backward worlds. Fear, that architect of power, is swinging in our days the axis of men's lives away from the economic order of thins and toward the political and moral order. Bare physical survival, freedom, and a morally meaningful existence are the imperatives of the immediate future. Contrary to appearances, it is not material livelihood, but survival and human integrity that are the emergent issues. The magnitude of the shift sets the perspective of this book.

EXCERPT: INTRODUCTION . . . The 1977-78 lectures, delivered at Laval, Queen's and Simon Fraser universities, focussed on "Goals for Canada". Not surprisingly, a central theme was nationalism: the need for a coherent sense of cultural and economic nationalism in English Canada both as a means of understanding Quebec and giving substance to our symbols of nationhood . . . The three lectures combine to identify, in a perceptive and scholarly fashion, major challenges and opportunities facing Canada today. How we respond to them will do much to shape the future of our country. - Beland Honderich, Chairman and Publisher, The Toronto Star Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
