A escravidão no Brasil e o seu impacto no desenvolvimento econômico e social da população negra

Abstract

Brazil represents an ideal field for understanding the relationship between slavery and the economic and social development of the black race. This research is in the need to understand that Brazil has made great strides towards equality between races and the reduction of slave labor, but great disparities still remain. The objective of the study is to present the context of slavery and its impact on economic development, describe concepts and contexts related to race and racial discrimination; historically identify black society in earlier times in Brazil and slave labor; to analyze modern slave labor in Brazil. This is a literature review study. At the end of this work, it will be possible to understand that even after centuries of abolition, slavery is still determinant in the income of the black population and that it still remains alive to the present day.
