Slavery is only a part of that time, albeit a significant one. It is the century when the industrial revolution truly took hold. Ways of life were continually changing, generally improving. The concept of the individual as an autonomous person and not just a subject of the ruling class was beginning to take hold. That naturally led to critical examination of slavery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlavery was justifiable to an aristocratic class that had for been generations comfortable with ruling over others, both free and slave.
