The divergence between slavery and abolitionists led the United States into the Civil War. The Missouri crisis over whether or not the region would be a slave was one of the antecedents of the war. In the videos, Tamis and his advisor, Rafael Marquese, insert in a global context these moments of the slavery crisis in the USA and narrate episodes that, like the Missouri crisis, had international implications beyond its protagonists. This is the case with the nullification crisis.
The narrative involves social, political and economic history and also brings contributions to the social sciences and international relations.
