Abstract
The purpose of this course is to attain a fundamental knowledge of one of the most complex and controversial experiences in American history. In an effort to better understand this institution, this course will examine various social, economic, and political aspects of slavery, and attempt to explain why the system developed as it did. Also, because slavery remained in the United States over such a long period (approximately two hundred and forty years), we will discuss how it changed over time.
