Answer: A main cause of the trade was the colonies that European countries were starting to develop. In America, for instance, which was a colony of England, there was a demand for many labourers for the sugar, tobacco and cotton plantations. As a direct result of the transatlantic slave trade, the greatest movement of Africans was to the Americas — with 96 per cent of the captives from the African coasts arriving on cramped slave ships at ports in South America and the Caribbean Islands.
Another difference between transatlantic and modern slavery is related to profitability and disposability. In the transatlantic slave trade, the focus of slave traders was on Africa and the high cost of transporting these people meant that once they were enslaved they were often maintained and reproduced.
Answer: The European views of non-European peoples and cultures reflected the intellectual changes of the time period from 1760-1910 as there is a remarkable shift in the perspective, before 1859. During this time period, the majority of Europeans see themselves as predominant. Prior to 1859, Europeans tended to romanticise the nature of less "developed" civilizations in their "natural form," while post-1859, Europeans believed they were culturally superior through the theory of Social Darwinism and must either teach those of other cultures European ways or allow them to perish.
