The Vice documentary on the cannibal warlords of Liberia is quite shocking. The slaves that were expatriated from America to Liberia promptly enslaved the local population with a nearly identical system to the one they had been taught to live under as slaves.

If you are interest in the subject I recommend reading "The Evolution of Deadly Conflict in Liberia: From 'Paternaltarianism' to State Collapse"

Any idea where to get it without paying an arm and a leg? I see it on Amazon for $199 and then for subscription via a few journals from a quick search

Wow, sorry its something I read about 15 years ago and when I bought it then it was probably in the $19 range.

I checked out Dr. Levitt's website and it was listed for $45, but the buy link just redirects to Amazon where the book is listed used for $199 as you say.

Try contacting Dr. Levitt through his website http://drjeremylevitt.com/, let him know its a topic you are interested in and a former law student from FIU Law recommended the book, he may be able to assist.
