18世纪末至19世纪上半期的英美废奴运动:合作、分歧与局限

The Anglo-American Abolitionist Movement from the Late 18th Century to the First Half of the 19th Century:Cooperation,Differences and Limitations

英美废奴运动的共同特征是大规模群众性社会运动与政府行动相结合,推动废奴目标的实现,形成了大西洋世界中独特的"盎格鲁-美利坚模式"。因此,它们在废奴思想、组织方式、信息交流和行动手段方面相互影响和推动,形成了西方世界反奴隶制运动中最密切的合作关系。然而,这一合作关系又受制于当时英美在国家利益上的分歧,导致它在19世纪40年代和50年代影响力受到很大削弱。

A common characteristic of the Anglo-American Abolitionist Movement was the combination of massive social movements and governmental activity to push forward the realization of its abolition objectives,giving rise to a unique model of its own in the Atlantic world. The movement witnessed mutual influence and mutual promotion in anti-slavery thought, organizational mode, information exchange and ways of action,featuring the closest relationship among anti-slavery movements in the Western world. However, this relationship was also limited because of differing British and American national interests, which seriously weakened its influence in the 1840 s and 1850 s.
