"Based on a broad and careful consideration of archival sources, Salman presents a wide range of materials that have often been at the periphery of scholarship on colonial and national histories but have never been treated systematically. Using the prism of anti-slavery ideology and the lingering anxieties about slavery and its opposite conditions, Salman is poised to make a crucial intervention in the comparative study of twentieth century colonialism. "The Embarrassment of Slavery is an original and compelling work."--Vicente Rafael, author of "White Love and Other Events in Filipino History and "Contracting Colonialism: Translation and Christian Conversions in Tagalog Society Under Early Spanish Rule
