Study Notes
Slavery vs. Slave Trade
-
Slavery is the state of being owned by another person, forced to work without pay, and with limited or no rights. It dehumanizes individuals and strips them of autonomy.
-
Slave Trade is the buying, selling, and transporting of enslaved people. This is a commercial exchange often across vast distances.
Impact
-
Slavery affects the enslaved, their families, communities, and society through generational trauma and lasting socio-economic disparities.
-
Slave Trade has profound economic, societal, and cultural impacts. It fueled industries like sugar and cotton and changed demographics and cultures over time.
Timeframes
-
Slavery has existed across history, in many forms including debt bondage and child exploitation.
-
Slave Trade saw a peak, particularly the transatlantic trade, from the 16th to 19th centuries. Other slave trades, like the Arab slave trade, existed before that time.
Legal/Moral Perspectives
-
Slavery is illegal in modern times and globally condemned. Yet, forms of modern slavery persist, like human trafficking.
-
Slave Trade is also condemned internationally. Protocols and agreements aim to stop this practice. Historical trade has been discussed in terms of reparations.
End of Practices
-
Slavery abolition was a pivotal moment in many countries, but its legacy persists in socio-economic inequalities and systemic issues.
-
Slave Trade abolition, in many instances, preceded slavery abolition. Even after legislation to end the trade, illegal activity continued.
