| | Slavery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Slavery almost always occurs for the purpose of securing the labour of the slave. | | | In Tahuantinsuyu (or Inca Empire), workers were subject to a mita in lieu of taxes which they paid by working for the government. | | | Thus it seems that this is also a turning point in history, where all commodity markets can slowly lever licensing and other requirements to ensure that slavery is eliminated from production, one industry at a time, as a sectoral simultaneous policy that does not cause disadvantages for any one market player. |

| | But there is an inherent contradiction in chattel slavery, as within the competitive system, and this was the first time in the history of society that chattel slavery, on a large scale, had entered into the competitive system. | | | It was also urged that such a reduction in price would enable the chattel slave owners to compete with the wage system in the settlement of new territory to the west. | | | This was urged in the hope of lowering the price of slaves and thereby preventing the collapse of slavery by the absorption of all profits in the values of the laborers. |

| | The Arabs consider it a traditional right to enslave southerners, and to own chattel slaves (slaves owned as personal property). | | | Accounts of human beings as modern slaves extend beyond those described here, and include young girls sold into prostitution in Thailand and slave chattels in Mauritania. | | | Sometimes referred to as bonded laborers (because of the debts owed their masters), public perception of modern slavery is often confused with reports of workers in low-wage jobs or inhumane working conditions. |

| | But by changing the form of slavery -- by freeing men and appropriating land -- all the advantages of chattel slavery can be secured without any of the disadvantages which in a complex society attend the owning of a particular man by a particular master. | | | That chattel slavery is not the worst form of slavery we know from the fact that in countries where it has prevailed irrespective of race distinctions, the ranks of chattel slaves have been recruited from the ranks of the free poor, who, driven by distress, have sold themselves or their children. | | | While as for predial slavery -- the attachment of serfs to the soil -- the form of chattel slavery which existed longest in Europe, it is only of use to the proprietor where there is little competition for land. |

| | The oldest and most traditional form of slavery, chattel slavery is a vestige of the trans-Saharan slave trade in black Africans. | | | A slave was considered by law as property, or chattel, and was deprived of most of the rights ordinarily held by free persons. | | | In the midst of the worldwide economic boom, reports documenting modern-day slavery come from every corner of the globe. |

| | This form of slavery can be called "chattel slavery." (There are other ways in which the term can be used, such as in reference to the slavery discussed in the Old Testament, where slaves were regarded as property but nonetheless as bearers of human rights.) | | | These forms of servitude or slavery differ in kind from what we are calling chattel slavery. | | | But chattel slavery as practiced in the United States and elsewhere differed in kind, not merely degree, from just tide slavery. |

| | Gilder Lehrman Center "The Problem of Slavery," David Brion Davis |
| | In contrast to traditional chattel slaves, who usually represented a valuable investment, these political or ethnic prisoners were by definition expendable. | | | As the laws governing chattel property evolved in the earliest civilizations, it was almost universally agreed that a slave, like an animal, could be bought, sold, traded, leased, mortgaged, bequeathed, presented as a gift, pledged for a debt, included in a dowry, or seized in a bankruptcy. | | | If the twentieth century witnessed the slow eradication of most chattel slavery in Africa, Asia, and the Mideast, it also set new records for cruelty and atrocity as tens of millions of men, women, and children were subjected to state servitude by Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, communist China, and smaller totalitarian nations. |

| | The interest of a possessor of a chattel in its inviolability, unlike the similar interest of a possessor of land, is not given legal protection by an action for nominal damages for harmless intermeddlings with the chattel. | | | In the great majority of cases, the actor's intermeddling with the chattel impairs the value of it to the possessor, as distinguished from the mere affront to his dignity as possessor, only by some impairment of the physical condition of the chattel. | | | Sufficient legal protection of the possessor's interest in the mere inviolability of his chattel is afforded by his privilege to use reasonable force to protect his possession against even harmless interference. |
