What were three reasons for the development of the slave trade?

History
2 answers:
Liula [17]3 years ago

  • <em>Shortage of labour: </em>The plantations that were established in America were extremely profitable. However, the population of the region was too small to supply the labor that was necessary to operate them (both in terms of Native Americans and Europeans). Therefore, African people fulfilled this role by providing cheap labor.
  • <em>Resistance to disease:</em> While many Native Americans died easily from European diseases, African people were more resistant to them because of the long history of contact between the two continents. This made them more resilient.
  • <em>Ideas of racial superiority: </em>Most slaveholders and slave traders believed African people to be inferior to Europeans, which allowed them to enslave them and treat them badly with little to no remorse.

Nations that do not have the resources to carry on productive trade agreements are what
ra1l [238]

The correct answer is: "a developing nation".

Developing nations lack the technological developments which are necessary to compete in international markets. Most developed countries that  use such technologies are able to produce more elaborated goods (hence more expensive) at a much lower cost and therefore gather the profits from international trade.

On the other hand, developing nations where wage levels are low and where institutions are weak become an attractive destination for corporations that perform outsourcing. Outsourcing consists on a company hiring another one in order to perform a certain task. If a corporation hires a company in a developing country, for example to perform certain stages of its production process, it can profit for the lower labor costs and the lack of regulation and taxation system that emerges from the lack of strong institutions. This outsourcing contract allows the corporation of producting at a lower cost than before and to become more competitive in the international markets.
