Sumario:Modern slavery is growing despite the introduction of laws to try to stem it. This hugely topical book, by a team of high-profile activists and expert writers, is the first to critically assess the legislation, using evidence from across the field, and to offer strategies for improvement in policy and practice. It argues that the Modern Slavery Act is inadequate and punitive; and that the UK government is actually creating the conditions for slavery to be promoted.
