dbo:abstract | The Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery Throughout the British Dominions, founded in 1823 and known as the London Anti-slavery Society during 1838 before ceasing to exist in that year, was commonly referred to as the Anti-Slavery Society. The Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery Throughout the British Dominions was founded in 1823, with the aim of abolishing slavery in the British Empire. This objective was substantially achieved in 1838 under the terms of the Slavery Abolition Act 1833. A successor organisation, the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, also commonly known as the Anti-Slavery Society, was formed in 1839 by English Quaker and activist Joseph Sturge to fight for global abolition of slavery. Through mergers and name changes, it is now known as Anti-Slavery International. (en) L'Anti-Slavery Society (qu'on peut traduire en français par « Société contre l'esclavage ») était le nom courant de plusieurs organisations abolitionnistes britanniques : * La Société pour l’abolition de la traite négrière (Society for the Extinction of the Slave Trade), influencée par les initiatives des quakers anglais et nord-américains, provoqua en 1788 une enquête du Conseil privé de la Couronne, qui amène le Parlement à voter en 1807 l’interdiction de la traite négrière. Les abolitionnistes britanniques intensifièrent alors leurs campagnes, recourant aux moyens les plus divers pour sensibiliser l’opinion publique mondiale : conférences, signatures de pétitions, campagnes de boycott des marchandises en provenance de pays à esclaves, diffusion de livrets et feuilles imprimés et illustrés. L’Angleterre prit ainsi la tête des courants abolitionnistes mondiaux après avoir maîtrisé le trafic négrier pendant plus de deux siècles. * La Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery Throughout the British Dominions, fondée en 1823, avait pour but l'abolition de l'esclavage dans l'Empire britannique. Cet objectif fut atteint en 1838 par le Slavery Abolition Act de 1833. * En 1839, cette organisation fut remplacée par la British and foreign anti-slavery society. Cette dernière joua un rôle d'expertise, envoyant des émissaires dans le monde entier pour vérifier les conditions d'application des décrets anti-esclavagistes et informer le Parlement britannique des persistances de la traite illégale. Elle tint aussi une place prépondérante au sein du mouvement anti-esclavagiste international, participant même au financement de sociétés étrangères comparables, notamment en France. La British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society organisa à Londres deux grandes conventions réunissant les délégués de toutes les sociétés abolitionnistes du monde, d'abord en juin 1840, ensuite en juin 1843, dans le but de recenser les différents types d'esclavages du monde, leurs conséquences humaines et commerciales et de dégager des stratégies d'action coordonnée pour obtenir leur disparition L'action de l'Anti-Slavery Society perdure aujourd'hui au travers de l'organisation non gouvernementale Anti-Slavery International. (fr) Anti-Slavery Society (in inglese, Società contro lo schiavismo) è il nome di due diverse organizzazioni britanniche del XIX secolo. La più antica fu fondata nel 1823 e si proponeva di ottenere l'abolizione della schiavitù in tutti i territori soggetti alla corona britannica; il suo nome ufficiale era Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery Throughout the British Dominions ("società per la mitigazione e la graduale abolizione della schiavitù nei domini britannici"). Dopo l'abolizione della schiavitù da parte del Regno Unito (legge del 1833 e applicazione dal 1838) venne fondata una seconda società antischiavista, avente l'obiettivo di arrivare ad un'abolizione universale. Questa seconda società, The British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society ("società anti-schiavista britannica e straniera") fu fondata nel 1839; è ancora attiva ed è la più antica società per i diritti umani in attività. (it) De Anti-Slavery Society was een 19e-eeuwse Britse vereniging van abolitionisten. De vereniging werd gesticht in 1823. Haar officiële naam was Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery Throughout the British Dominions. Een van haar verwezenlijkingen bestond in het ondersteunen van de uitgave van de memoires van Mary Prince, een Afrikaans-Caraïbische weggelopen slaaf. Thomas Pringle, secretaris van de Anti-Slavery Society gaf haar een betaalde job. In 1831 kon ze met zijn steun haar boek uitgeven, The History of Mary Prince, A West Indian Slave (1831). De uitgevers kregen een proces aan hun broek van haar vroegere eigenaars. Een splintergroep onder leiding van Joseph Sturge, genaamd het Agency Committee, voerde campagne voor wat uiteindelijk zou leiden tot de Slavery Abolition Act van 1833. Het werk van de Society zat erop in het jaar 1838 toen de slavernij werd afgeschaft in alle Britse gebieden. De Agency Committee vond dat slavernij nu ook in de rest van de wereld aangepakt moest worden. Op 17 april 1839 stichtten ze de British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society op. Het doel van deze organisatie was wereldwijde emancipatie en de bestrijding van de slavernij in de Franse kolonies en in de Verenigde Staten. Deze maatschappij bestaat nog steeds onder de nieuwe naam Anti-Slavery International. (nl) Anti-Slavery Society (Officiellt namn: Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery Throughout the British Dominions), var en brittisk abolitionistförening, grundad 1823. Den var en efterföljare till den förra stora brittiska abolitionistföreningen, Society for Effecting the Abolition of the Slave Trade, som hade arbetat för att avskaffa slavhandeln och lagts ned när målet uppnåtts. Tron var att själva slaveriet skulle dö ut när slavhandeln avskaffats, men när så inte var fallet bildades Anti-Slavery Society för att arbeta för ett förbud mot själva slaveriet. En rad av de mest berömda brittiska abolotionisterna var verksamma i föreningen, så som , , , , , Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce, Henry Brougham, Thomas Fowell Buxton och Anne Knight. När föreningen nådde sitt mål i Storbritanniens kolonier genom Slavery Abolition Act 1833, lades föreningen ned 1838 och följdes av den fortfarande existerande Anti-Slavery International (även den ofta känd under namnet Anti-Slavery Society), som bildades 1839 för att avskaffa slaveriet globalt.
