Slavery in general or slavery somewhere in particular? but over all the answer is yes. somewhere someone will put someone else into forced labor without their consent.
Are factions inevitable?
The Civil War was seen as inevitable due to deep-rooted tensions between the North and South over issues such as slavery, states' rights, and economic differences. The expansion of slavery into new territories heightened conflicts, leading to events like the Missouri Compromise and the Dred Scott decision, which polarized the nation further. Additionally, the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, who opposed the expansion of slavery, prompted Southern states to secede, ultimately sparking the conflict. These factors created an environment where compromise became increasingly difficult, making war seem unavoidable.
As the industrial revolution was taking place in western European countries and in the United States, it may have not been foreseen, but the economics of slavery simply was not going to be a viable system. In the United States, speaking about the early 19th century, the cost and maintenance, of a captured work force would have soon enough fade away. When this might have happened in the US Southern States and in Union states that had legal slavery, is speculation.
The Compromise of 1850 was successful in temporarily diffusing sectional conflict by incorporating concessions from both pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions. It allowed California to enter the Union as a free state while implementing a stricter Fugitive Slave Act, thereby appeasing Southern interests. Additionally, it organized the territories of New Mexico and Utah with the principle of popular sovereignty, allowing residents to decide the slavery issue themselves. These compromises provided a temporary resolution, delaying the inevitable clash over slavery.
Slavery was commnplace in Africa - tribes often fought and took prisoners after a victory. When the Europeans came to Africa they were soon able to capitalise and took slaves to work on plantations around the world. It is worth noting that the British were the last to enter the slave trade - economic pressures made slavery almost inevitable. The British were also the first to stop slavery and only the power of the Britsh Navy was able to force other nations to stop this practice.
Slavery was not an inevitable stage in society's development. It was a practice that arose for economic and social reasons but has been shown to be detrimental to both individuals and society as a whole. Many societies have evolved beyond reliance on slavery and have recognized its ethical and moral implications.
No. There was no opportunity, but slavery grew.
More inevitable, most inevitable
Medieval slavery was essentially a continuation of the Roman slave tradition, and was slowly on the decline. Enslaving non-Christians was seen as somewhat unseemly, and sources of pagan slaves were becoming limited on the continent.
"It was inevitable that that would happen", "his death was inevitable", "losing that match was inevitable"...

At Fort Sumter when the first shots were fired.
Because the colonists figured out that by using cheap human labor, they could make more income from cash crops such as tobacco and rice.
With our score so high, I think that victory is inevitable. Making mistakes is inevitable for human beings.

death is inevitable
It would be an error to say that the issue of slavery, a long time practice in the Western Hemisphere, made a US civil war inevitable. It's easy to say that of course by the use of 20-20 hindsight historians. However the logic of the "inevitable" cannot stand the light of day. Before the discussion of this goes further, it's wise to remember that the success of the American Revolution was not inevitable. Looking back, was it "unfair" British taxation that made the American revolution inevitable? Examples of inevitability can be said about many events in history. With faulty logic out of the way, there were innumerable chances to abolish slavery in the British-American colonies and in the United States. The will to take advantage of them was not there. The problem reached a point of critical mass with the unusual 1860 US presidential elections that had four candidates. With that said, the first chance was the ratification debates on the US Constitution. There was nothing that made slavery a "can't do without it issue". Then, the number of slaves were small compared to 1860, and it involved a few "colonies", not one half of a country with over 30 million people.
