'''Abolitionism''' or '''Anti-Slavery''' is a [[File:Nonquadrant.png]] [[:Category:Non-Quadrant|non-quadrant]] political ideology that is against [[File:Slavery.png]] [[Caste_System|slavery]]. According to this philosophy, all people, regardless of their ethnic origin, are free and should not be at the mercy of other people.
==History==
WIP

==Beliefs==
Abolitionism, as already mentioned, opposes [[File:Slavery.png]] [[Caste_System|slavery]] and believes that it would be something inhuman, as it believes that humans are born free. It is [[File:Cultcenter.png]] [[:Category:Cultural_Center|culturally ambiguous]], as there are as many [[File:Conservative.png]] [[Conservatism|conservative]] abolitionists as there are [[File:Prog-u.png]] [[Progressivism|progressives]], although most slave regimes are [[File:InfReactionaryism.png]] [[Reactionaryism|culturally reactionary]]. Most oppose [[File:Colonial.png]] [[Imperialism#Colonialism|colonialism]] and [[File:Racism.png]] [[Racial_Nationalism|racism]], because of slavery in the [[File:PanAmer.png]] Americas and [[File:Cball-AfricanUnion.png]] Africa, with many (especially in Latin America and Africa) associating abolitionism with [[File:Antiimp.png]] anti-imperialism, although there is debate about this. Abolitionism was influenced by [[File:Enlightenment.png]] [[Enlightenment_Thought|Enlightenment]] and [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical_Liberalism|Classic Liberal]] ideals ([[File:AdamSmith.png]] Adam Smith, [[File:JohnLocke.png]] John Locke (debated), [[File:Garfield.png]] James Garfield and others) and by some Judeo-Christian examples. Abolitionism is also economically neutral, as the only economic position in fact is opposition to the slave economy, which can range from [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism|socialist]] to [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalist]].

Abolitionism has been fused with both [[File:LeftAbolition.png]] left-wing and [[File:RightAbolition.png]] right-wing theory. [[File:LeftAbolition.png]] Leftist abolitionists believe [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] has allowed and in large-part originated in [[File:Slavery.png]] slavery in the past and will enable slavery in the future, while comparing modern-day working conditions to slave labor, trapping people in poverty. [[File:RightAbolition.png]] Rightist abolitionists on the other hand hold that the [[File:Markets.png]] free market and [[File:Lib.png]] liberal ideas are necessary for the abolition of slavery and compare slavery to conditions in [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|Marxist-Leninist]] countries such as [[File:Cball-USSR.png]] {{PBW|Soviet Unionball|The Soviet Union}} and [[File:NeoComBall.png]] {{PBW|Warsaw Pactball|other Warsaw Pact members}}.

Abolitionism has a complicated relationship with [[File:Religious.png]] religion. [[File:Christy.png]] Christian institutions have historically been used to defy prejudice and slavery while in other times being used to justify it. [[File:Augustinianism.png]] [[Christian Theocracy|Saint Augustine]] described it as resulting from sin and many of the first abolitionist organisations and activists were Christian, such as [[File:JohnBrown.png]] John Brown. Other examples of historical Christian opposition to slavery could be:
*[[File:Moses.png]] Moses freeing the Hebrew people
*Deuteronomy 23:15-16
*Isaiah 58:6-9
*Quakers
*Pope Benedict XIV, Pius VII, [[File:Pius_IX.png]] Pius IX, Gregory XVI and [[File:LeoXIII.png]] Leo XIII

Slavery and [[File:IslamicAbolition.png]] abolitionism are also an extensive topic within [[File:Muslim.png]] Islam. Throughout history, many Muslim states practiced slavery with the first country to abolish slavery being [[File:Cball-Tunisia.png]] {{PBW|Tunisiaball|Tunisia}}, closely followed by [[File:Cball-Ottomanism.png]] {{PBW|Ottomanball|The Ottoman Empire}}. The Qu'ran itself speaks in length on slavery, and slavery was a key part of the early Arabic world. Many prophets oppose slavery using intepretations from the Qu'ran, such as the condemnation of anyone who enslaves a free man.

=== [[File:JuanJoseCastelli.png]] '''Castellism''' ===
Juan José Castelli was an [[File:Cball-Argentina.png]] Argentine lawyer, [[File:InfRevolutionaryism.png]] revolutionary, and political leader who played a central role in the early phase of the Río de la Plata independence movement. Born in Buenos Aires in 1764, Castelli was educated at the Royal College of San Carlos and later studied law at the University of Chuquisaca. During his time in Upper Peru, he encountered [[File:Enlightenment.png]] [[Enlightenment Thought|Enlightenment]] philosophy and absorbed the political doctrines of [[File:Rousseau.png]] {{PHB|Rousseauism|Jean-Jacques Rousseau}} and other eighteenth-century thinkers. These influences shaped his commitment to [[File:DemPop.png]] [[Democracy|popular sovereignty]], [[File:Equality.png]] {{PHB|egalitarianism}}, and [[File:Anti-Absolutism.png]] [[Anti-Authoritarianism|anti-absolutism]], which later defined his revolutionary activity.


Castelli emerged as a leading figure during the May Revolution of 1810, aligning closely with [[File:MarianoMoreno.png]] {{PCBA|Morenism|Mariano Moreno}} and the [[File:RadLib.png]] [[Radicalism|radical]] faction within the Primera Junta. His political formation reflected Enlightenment thought, [[File:Jacobin.png]] [[Jacobinism]], and a [[File:CapAnti_Clerical.png]] rejection of both clerical authority and hereditary monarchy. Although he initially supported the Carlotist project of a [[File:Conmon.png]] [[Constitutional Monarchism]] under Carlota Joaquina of Spain, this stance functioned as a tactical measure rather than a lasting conviction. His rhetoric and policy initiatives showed [[File:Antimon.png]] [[Republicanism|anti-monarchism]], [[File:Anticon.png]] {{PCBA|anti-conservatism}}, and [[File:AntiModer.png]] [[Anti-Centrism|anti-moderatism]], positioning him among the most uncompromising revolutionaries of the Río de la Plata.


Appointed to lead military and political operations in Upper Peru, Castelli implemented, along with his secretary [[File:BernardoDeMonteagudo.png]] [[Revolutionary Progressivism|Bernardo de Monteagudo]], sweeping reforms following early patriot victories. He abolished [[File:Native.png]] Indigenous tribute and forced labor systems, decreed the elimination of the [[File:Inquisition.png]] Inquisition and the suppression of titles of nobility, authorized [[File:Globcap.png]] [[Globalism#Economic_Globalisation|free trade]] and [[File:LandReform.png]] [[Agrarian Socialism|redistributed land]] expropriated from the [[File:Slavery.png]] [[w:Mit'a|Mit'as]], and proclaimed legal equality for Indigenous populations. His policies reflected [[Indigenism|indigenist]] sympathies and admiration for the legacy of [[File:TúpacAmaruII.png]] [[Indigenism|Túpac Amaru II]], whose eighteenth-century rebellion he interpreted as a precursor to continental liberation. Castelli’s gestures toward an [[File:Cball-Inca.png]] [[Indigenism|Inca restoration]] were designed to mobilize Indigenous support and legitimize revolutionary authority. These measures illustrate his fusion of [[File:RevNat.png]] [[Revolutionary Nationalism]] with [[File:Anti-Colonial.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Imperialism|anti-colonial}} and [[File:AntiHisp.png]] anti-Spanish sentiment.

Castelli’s governance in Upper Peru also displayed authoritarian progressivism. While advocating egalitarian principles and popular sovereignty, he endorsed harsh disciplinary measures against royalist opponents. His critics accused him of [[File:Robespierre.png]] Robespierreism and [[File:StateTerrorist.png]] {{PCBA|state terrorism}}, citing executions of counterrevolutionaries and his defense of the [[File:Death_Penalty.png]] {{PCBA|Pro-Death Penalty|death penalty}} as necessary instruments of revolutionary justice.


Intellectually, Castelli combined Rousseauian concepts of the general will with [[File:Utility.png]] {{PCBA|Utilitarianism|utilitarian}} reasoning about political necessity. He rejected [[File:AntiReact.png]] [[Reactionaryism|reactionary]] and [[File:AntiTrad.png]] [[Traditionalism|traditionalist]] structures that, in his view, perpetuated colonial hierarchy and racial stratification. His [[File:AntiRacism.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Racism|anti-racist}} orientation was expressed in decrees promoting legal equality and dismantling caste distinctions, though practical implementation remained uneven. At the same time, his support for [[File:Globcap.png]] [[Globalism#Economic_Globalisation|free trade]] signaled a break from mercantilist colonial restrictions and aligned with broader revolutionary economic reform.

Castelli’s defeat at the Battle of Huaqui in 1811 weakened the [[File:Authradicalism.png]] radical faction within the revolutionary government. Recalled to Buenos Aires and placed on trial, he defended his policies before dying of cancer in 1812. Despite his short political career, he left a lasting imprint on Argentine and Andean revolutionary memory. His synthesis of Enlightenment radicalism, anti-colonial militancy, Indigenous inclusion, and centralized revolutionary authority situates him as one of the most ideologically assertive figures of the early independence era.

===[[File:FreeSoil.png]] Free Soilerism===

'''The Free Soil Party''' was a single-issue [[File:Anti-slavery.png]] anti-slavery{{Refn|
The Free Soil Party supported outlawing slavery in U.S. territories, preventing the creation of new slave states, but did not call for the abolition of slavery.|group=Note}} party that existed from 1848 to 1854. It was the successor of the [[File:Abolitionism.png]] Liberty Party made up of many [[File:Demcr.png]] Democrats and [[File:ClassUSCon.png]] Whigs who were unhappy with the approval of the Democratic Nominees in regard to the expansion of slavery into newly gained Mexican lands.

In the 1848 presidential election, [[File:FreeSoil.png]] The Free Soil Party ran under former president [[File:Buren.png]] [[Jacksonian Democracy|Martin van Buren]] and won an impressive 10.8% of the popular vote, beating out every other third party behind this point. Many rejoined the Democrat and Whig parties right after, however throughout it's lifetime it kept an influence in the senate and got just under 5% of the popular vote in the 1852 presidential election (ran under [[File:Abolitionism.png]] [[w:John_P._Hale|John P. Hale]]) before merging with [[File:RepubUS.png]] The Republican Party in 1854.

===[[File:JohnBrown.png]] John Brown Thought===
'''John Brown''' was a radical abolitionist who fought in Bleeding Kansas and led an unsuccessful slave rebellion at Harper's Ferry. Brown was raised in a [[File:Calvinist_Theocracy.png]] [[Protestant Theocracy|Puritan]] family which would profoundly influence his views. He believed that God was using him to act as a new [[File:Moses.png]] [[Jewish Theocracy|Moses]] who would lead another race of people out of bondage. Brown believed that violence was necessary to end slavery since decades of peace had failed. Brown was a leader of abolitionist forces in Bleeding Kansas, a state level civil war to determine whether Kansas would be a slave or free state. Brown and his sons killed five slavery supporters in the Pottawatomie massacre and would lead abolitionist forces at the Battle of Black Jack and the Battle of Osawatomie.

In October 1859, Brown led a raid on Harper's Ferry, Virginia hoping to start a slave rebellion that would engulf the entire South. The plan however was poorly executed leading to Brown's capture by [[File:Cball-CSA.png]] [[Confederalism|Robert E. Lee]]. Brown was tried for treason and was executed by hanging. His actions were a huge contributing factor to the Civil War with Southerners viewing him as a madman and terrorist while Northerners viewed him as a martyr and hero.

==Personality==
Abolitionism is a deeply moralistic individual, who loves to talk about past Abolition movements. Often shown organizing protests and reading historical literature.
