| الوصف: | When the effects of land expansion on cotton prices are set against the effects on slave productivity, a partial equilibrium analysis suggests that the rapid westward migration may actually have lowered slave prices. A more general analysis which incorporates the portfolio effects of expansion reduces the certainty of this result. Nonetheless, we conclude that southeastern planters could not have had a major economic stake in westward expansion, and this finding has important historical implications. |
