This thought-provoking collection brings together academics from a range of disciplines to examine modern slavery.

It illustrates how different disciplinary positions, methodologies and perspectives form and clash together through a kaleidoscopic view and forms a unique insight into critical modern slavery studies. Providing a platform to critique the legal, ideological and political responses to the issue, experts interrogate the construct of modern slavery and the anti-trafficking discourse which have dominated contemporary responses to and understandings of exploitation.

Drawing from real-world examples across the world, this is a vital contribution to the study of modern slavery.

Reviews for Modern Slavery in Global Context: Human Rights, Law, and Society

“This book is essential reading for anyone troubled by the perplexing continuation of human trafficking and modern slavery in contemporary times. Its orthodoxy-disrupting orientation, together with reflections on prevailing power, racism and colonialism within this arena, allow insightful commentary on how activism and research can more meaningfully influence anti-trafficking and anti-slavery policy.” Louise Waite, University of Leeds
