By James Bronterre O'Brien

The rise, progress, and phases of human slavery is a historical account examining the origins and development of slavery throughout history. It explores the various forms slavery has taken and how it continues to manifest in different societies, often disguised under legal and social systems. The work highlights the ongoing plight of the working classes, portraying them as a modern form of enslaved people caught in cycles of exploitation. The narrative begins by addressing the urgent need for social reform amid widespread slavery, both overt and hidden. It discusses the universality of slavery across civilizations and time periods, including its persistence in supposedly civilized nations. The concept of proletarianism is introduced, comparing the working classes to slaves subjected to systemic exploitation rooted in history. The book traces slavery back to ancient despotism and familial control, acknowledging Christianity s role in slave emancipation while revealing that such changes led to the emergence of the modern proletariat a new class facing suffering and oppression. This analysis offers a critical perspective on social inequality and the challenges of true liberation.
