Book Review

Amerika no doreisei to jiyushugi (Liberalism and American slavery). By Makoto Tsujiuchi. (Tokyo: Tokyo Daigaku Shuppankai, 1997. xiv, 348 pp. ¥6,400, ISBN 4-13-026115-0.) In Japanese.

This fine book by Makoto Tsujiuchi, whose untimely death in December 2000 saddens us all, presents a clearly written and compelling view of the interaction between nineteenth-century liberalism and the abolition of slavery in the United States. Informed by the prodigious English-language scholarly literature on its many subthemes and Tsujiuchi's own research in the relevant primary documents, Amerika no doreisei to jiyushugi represents a rich contribution to the Japanese-language literature on the history of the United States in the nineteenth century and on the relationship between liberalism and abolitionism in particular.
