What did commodification mean in the process of selling enslaved people to plantations?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Treating human beings as goods to be bought and sold in a market

Commodification meant treating human beings as property or marketable goods rather than as persons with rights and dignity. In the slave trade, people were assigned prices and sold to plantations for labour. Option B refers to emancipation, which is the opposite of commodification. Exam tip: Remember ‘commodification’ as the conversion of people into objects or property for sale.
