RESUMO
Resumo Na década de 1870, o Império do Brasil sancionou a Lei do Ventre Livre (1871) e impulsionou um conjunto de reformas modernizadoras. Em meio à crise do escravismo e no contexto da seca de 1877-1879, proprietários de terra e de escravos, ministros, presidentes de província e representantes do saber técnico teciam planos para o aproveitamento do "trabalho livre" dos retirantes, enquanto estes mostravam uma clara orientação pela economia camponesa. Ainda no primeiro ano de seca, o engenheiro e abolicionista André Rebouças escreveu e publicou um conjunto de artigos comparando a seca do Ceará com a da Índia britânica, buscando nesta última modelo de administração a ser seguido no Brasil.
ABSTRACT
Abstract In the 1870s, the Brazilian Empire sanctioned the Free Womb Law (1871) and a set into motion a series of modernizing reforms. Amid the crisis of slavery and the drought and famine of 1877-1879, landowners and slaveholders, ministers, provincial presidents, and representatives of technical knowledge forged plans to utilize the "free labor" provided by migrants, which showed clear leanings toward the peasant economy. During the first year of the drought, the engineer and abolitionist André Rebouças wrote and published a series of articles comparing famine-stricken Ceará with British India, seeking a model of governance to be followed in Brazil.
