Question

When was slavery finally abolished in France colonies?

Answer 1

Hint: Wealth and goods were moved in an insular, unidirectional method to the exclusive profit of Europe in this mercantilist economy of the French trans-Atlantic trafficking of enslaved human beings from Africa. Indeed, the French established a policy known as "the Exclusif," which required French colonies to exclusively sell exports to France and buy imported commodities from France.

Complete answer:
The abolition of slavery in 1794, its re-establishment in 1802 and then a second – and permanent – abolition in 1848 was a particularly uncommon experience for French colonies in the Caribbean, where around 80% of the entire population had lived under the slave system since the seventeenth century.
History was written there for a long time by colonial planters, administrators, and jurists who imparted a picture of real life that was at best fragmentary, if not erroneous and mythicized, as it was in all other Caribbean and American colonies.

In actuality, their essays established a collection of demands related to several situations, including a desire for free commerce and grievances centred on a desire for political autonomy similar to that of British territories, as well as the dispatch of more law enforcement services. In contrast, no slave testimony is known, either during the period of slavery or after it was abolished.

Therefore slavery was finally abolished in French colonies in 1848.

Note: This is a significant defect in the body of documents available to historians. Another issue of obtaining knowledge of the past in the French colonies is that their history was written and handed down in a masterfully managed strategy of contempt for the past following the events in Santo Domingo/Haiti between 1791 and 1804, and then from 1848 onwards following abolition.
