Prologue
A surprising look at the history and legacy of imperialist Rotterdam. Dutch imperialism transformed Rotterdam, Netherlands from a murky wetland into Europe’s largest seaport. Today, as the so-called “New Rotterdammers” flock to the urban center from former colonies, the city’s complex ties to slavery around the world demand increased scrutiny. Gathering insights from an interdisciplinary group of scholars, Colonialism and Slavery confronts the lasting impact of colonization on contemporary Rotterdam’s economy, politics, architecture, and art.
