Capitalism was the one main force pushing for the end of slavery at the Contemporaneous Age. It's basically the reason most of the world doesn't have it anymore.

(And yeah, I mean modern Capitalism, that appeared after the Industrial Revolution.)

    nope, ironically it wasn't the capitalist institutions, but rather religious institutions that called for an end to slavery
