Eugene D. Genovese Livres

Eugene Genovese fut un historien américain réputé pour son exploration approfondie du Sud américain et de l'institution de l'esclavage. Son érudition fut distinctement marquée par l'application de la théorie marxiste pour analyser les dynamiques de pouvoir, les structures de classe et les relations complexes entre les propriétaires d'esclaves et les personnes réduites en esclavage. Plus tard dans son parcours intellectuel, il passa des idéologies de gauche et du marxisme pour adopter le conservatisme traditionaliste, un changement qui a façonné ses écrits et ses perspectives ultérieures.
