Resumen

ARMOND DIAS PAES, Mariana. Ser dependente no Império do Brasil: terra e trabalho em processos judiciais. Poblac. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.2, pp.8-29. ISSN 1852-8562.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.19137/pys-2020-270202.

This article examines the arguments used in an 1835 court case filed before the Court of Appeals of Rio de Janeiro. This analysis highlights that: a) the considerable number of African slaves and the existence of a shared culture in the South Atlantic had a strong impact on freedmen’s and freedwomen’s experiences of freedom; b) masters resisted freedpersons demands for rights and tried to sustain dependency relations; and c) in a context of precariousness of freedom, it was paramount to be recognized by the community as a free person and access to land played a central role in this recognition.

Palabras clave : Brazil; Africa; Slavery; Dependency; Ownership.
