Why was open discussion on slavery limited in eighteenth century France?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because commercial interests linked to the slave trade and plantation products were very strong

Trade in plantation products such as sugar, coffee and indigo from French Caribbean colonies was highly profitable. These profits depended on enslaved labour and the slave trade, so influential merchants and plantation owners discouraged open criticism of slavery. Option B is incorrect because slavery had not yet been abolished in the French colonies. Exam tip: Link slavery with colonial plantations, enslaved labour and commercial profit.
