Question 2 • SOC321 US History Sem 1 (25-26)

In two to three sentences, describe what makes this proposed contract one-sided.

Answer

Answer:

This contract is one-sided because it grants the landowner complete control over the crops and the laborer's time while providing very little compensation. Furthermore, it often forces the laborer into a cycle of debt by requiring them to purchase supplies from the landowner at high prices, making it impossible to gain financial independence.
