In the 1950's, however, people were terrified of the red Communists coming to take over their beloved country. Senator McCarthy was the one taking out other people in the govornment that he suspected to be a communist via inprisonment. The witch trials and McCarthyism started differently as well, for one started with a group of young girls' voodoo practice and the other started when senator McCarthy was trying to win an election and took advantage of the peoples feelings toward the "Red scare." A lot of the evil things McCarthyism did were private and behind closed govornment doors. During the Salem Witch Trials the accused people were forced to make a public confession and be killed in front of their family and friends.

She tells him, her voice filled with emotion, that she had been raped an estimated 43,200 times between the ages of twelve and sixteen because she was sold into prostitution
Throughout the story we see John’s character, and the way other people see him. In the beginning of the story it does not seem like John is a good person. It seems this way because we learn that Proctor had an affair with Abigail Williams. Abigail Williams is one of the girls that were accusing people of witch craft. Even though he had the affair, we see John tell Abigail that he had made a mistake.
The victims are then informed that they must work to pay back the debt of travel, rent and food. The 3rd most lucrative illegal crime in the world, human trafficking is the most problematic to combat. The victims are threatened if they attempt to escape or refuse to work. Therefore, the sufferers rarely confess to being imprisoned, in fear of their family’s lives and their own ‘well-being’. 21st century slavery continues to rise in Great Britain’s underground world, simultaneously with the number of people incarcerated in a life of anguish.

It was during this period in the 19th century, that the trade in slaves reached its peak. According to Karl Marx, humankind's development can be categorized into stages of societal progression in regard to the relationships of production. The initial stage in human development is the communal stage, which is often described as primitive communism.

Without a doubt there has been debates about what goes on, on these plantations.
Since the ancient times, peasants have been tricked or trapped into this type of slavery in countries such as India, Nepal and Pakistan. Debt bondage also had the indentured labourers confined into working on plantations in Africa, the Caribbean; and Southeast Asia where it is found to be the most prevalent.
