Reviews
Engaging with moral philosophy, social theory, and postcolonial thinking, Scott boldly argues that New World slavery was an 'absolute evil,' or irreparable harm, characterized by the destruction of African lifeworlds, for which a reparative response, both moral and material, is necessary. He does so through lucid prose and timely arguments that relate the Caribbean past to our contemporary present in persuasive and provocative ways., Engaging with moral philosophy, social theory, and postcolonial thinking, David Scott boldly argues that New World slavery was an 'absolute evil,' or irreparable harm, characterized by the destruction of African lifeworlds, for which a reparative response, both moral and material, is necessary.

Synopsis
What was distinctive about the evil of the transatlantic slave trade and New World slavery? In what ways can the present seek to rectify such historical wrongs, even while recognizing that they lie beyond repair? Irreparable Evil explores the legacy of slavery and its moral and political implications, offering a nuanced intervention into debates over reparations. David Scott reconsiders the story of New World slavery in a series of interconnected essays that focus on Jamaica and the Anglophone Caribbean. Slavery, he emphasizes, involved not only scarcely imaginable brutality on a mass scale but also the irreversible devastation of the ways of life and cultural worlds from which enslaved people were uprooted. Colonial extraction shaped modern capitalism; plantation slavery enriched colonial metropoles and simultaneously impoverished their peripheries. To account for this atrocity, Scott examines moral and reparatory modes of history and criticism, probing different conceptions of evil. He reflects on the paradoxes of seeking redress for the specific moral evil of slavery, criticizing the limitations of liberal rights-based arguments for reparations that pursue reconciliation with the past. Instead, this book argues, in making the urgent demand for reparations, we must acknowledge the fundamental irreparability of a wrong of such magnitude., Irreparable Evil explores the legacy of slavery and its moral and political implications, offering a nuanced intervention into debates over reparations.

It only had to travel 60 mile!. It finally arrived this morning with a Royal Mail 48 hour post label, so took a month to finally dispatch

Here it was exactly what I wanted, plus being pristine and new, as described. It took a little while to arrive, as it was clearly coming thru to the company from the States, but it was well worth the wait. It also arrived nicely and safely wrapped. And the company informed me when the disc was ready for dispatch. Very good, professional, service. Top marks. Thanks.Hondo [Blu-ray] [Region Free] - DVD - New (Nr. 375899048679)

I took photographs and attached them to the seller to make them aware, with a message. They resolved the issue by giving me a partial refund, which I was happy with. Well packaged. Once dispatched, quick delivery. Good communication. Value for money.
