One of the primary differences between the Northern and Southern economy before the American Civil War was the presence of slavery. Uncle Tom's Cabin focuses on this element, this difference between North and South.Part of the reason why slavery is shown to be so cruel is that it degrades human beings as objects.ncle Tom;s Cabin was written in the 1850's, which was the time period where slavery was a big issue. The book focuses a lot on the differences between the North and the South. The Southern economy was based on the slave trade.
The widening difference in the economic base of the north (industry, which used machines, like to make cotton cloth) and the south, which was agriculture based and thus a huge proponent of slaves to plant, cultivate, and harvest crops lead to an economic and moral split; with the North mostly being against slavery (while paying their workers 10 cents a day for 12 hour days), and the South wanting to keep their slaves.
