How is the clash between human dignity and profit seen in the debate on slavery?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The demand for freedom of enslaved people struck commercial profit

Under slavery, plantation owners and traders obtained labour without, or with extremely low, wages, making it a source of profit. The demand to free enslaved people upheld equality and human dignity, while challenging this profitable system. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B is wrong because freedom ended the owners' access to unpaid labour. Exam tip: In such questions, identify the conflict between a moral principle (dignity/equality) and an economic interest (profit).
