''An Essay On The Impolicy Of The African Slave Trade: In Two Parts'' is a historical book written by Thomas Clarkson in 1788. The book is a critical analysis of the African slave trade and its impact on society, economy, and morality. The first part of the book focuses on the economic implications of the slave trade and argues that it is not only morally wrong but also economically inefficient. Clarkson argues that the slave trade is a waste of human resources and that the profits gained from it are short-lived and unsustainable.In the second part of the book, Clarkson discusses the moral implications of the slave trade. He argues that slavery is a violation of human rights and that it is a form of oppression that degrades both the slave and the slave owner. He also highlights the psychological effects of slavery on both the slaves and the slave owners, arguing that it leads to a loss of empathy and compassion.The book is considered to be one of the most influential works in the abolitionist movement and played a significant role in the eventual abolition of the slave trade. It is a powerful critique of the slave trade and a call to action for the abolition of slavery. The book is still relevant today as it highlights the importance of human rights and the need for social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
