Professor Nigel Worden - who since 2009 has held UCT's King George V Chair of History - delivered his inaugural lecture titled "The Global Cape: Breaking the boundaries of the early Cape colony" at the University of Cape Town on 21 September 2011. Inspired by other scholars, he became interested in the links between slavery in the Cape and elsewhere. Slave practices here, he now argues, often reflected slave practices in other corners of the world. "The Cape, at least as far as this period is concerned, was not a closed world, it wasn't an isolated bubble, it wasn't just an outpost of Europe," said Worden. "It was an Indian Ocean and Southern Atlantic settlement in all its diversity, and it was connected directly to the networks of these regions."
