| Abstract | |
This research presents the characterization of public spaces and private in the relationship of Brazilian slavery from the analysis of existing public slaves at the end of the Colony and Empire. These slaves were called slaves in the nation or national, and provided slave labour for public establishments and public works. The raised hypotheses arise from the possibility of differential treatment because of the condition of State-owned slaves, and their association with the characteristics of the State pointed out by historiography for this period. Set limits between the years 1760 until 1876, when the Portuguese Empire expelled the society of Jesus by confiscating their property, including slaves, and when it ends the period of five years determined by the law of the Free Womb (1871), to which the slaves leave the State supervision and achieve freedom. These slaves were used on farms, factories and Government offices in various regions of the Empire. This research examined the existence or absence of a State policy in respect of public slaves in the 19th century. The example was extended in the detailed analysis of the Imperial Fazenda de Santa Cruz (Rio de Janeiro) and Fábrica de Ferro São João de Ipanema (São Paulo). (AU) | |
