Nijmegen was the most important city in the most important province of the Dutch Republic. Although located far inland, the city was closely connected to cities from which ships of the trading companies departed to trade in spices, sugar and people. Which Nijmegen city administrators profited from slavery? How did mayors use their power to support slavery? How was slavery discussed in Nijmegen? And did colonial interest groups influence policy? This book sheds new light on the involvement of Nijmegen city administrators in colonial slavery from the end of the sixteenth century until 1873.
