From Slavery to Aid takes two major themes of African historiography - the death of slavery and the birth of aid - and constructs a social history of the Ader region, an understudied region of the West African Sahel in today's Republic of Niger. Benedetta Rossi traces the historical transformations that turned a society rooted in slavery into one governed by the goals and methods of 'aid.' Over an impressive sweep of time - from the pre-colonial power of the Caliphate of Sokoto in the nineteenth century to the aid-driven governments of the present - this study explores the problem that has remained the central conundrum of Ader's society: how workers could meet subsistence needs and employers fulfil recruitment requirements in an area where natural resources are constantly exposed to the climatic hazards characteristic of the edge of the Sahara.
