Reviews

“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
