Slaveholding Ideology

Slaveholding Ideology is a system of beliefs and justifications that rationalizes the ownership of enslaved persons as a natural, moral, and economically necessary institution, thereby distinguishing it from other forms of social or economic ideology through its specific defense of chattel slavery as a foundational social order.
