What mistake would happen if commercial interests are ignored in studying slavery?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The economic reasons for opposition to abolition will not be clear

Merchants and plantation owners earned substantial profits from the slave trade and plantation production. They therefore opposed the abolition of slavery. Ignoring commercial interests makes it difficult to explain why opposition to abolition was so strong. Option B is partly related, but the key error is failing to understand the economic basis of that opposition. Exam tip: In questions on slavery, connect moral arguments with profit, trade, and the plantation economy.
