Over the last two decades, fighting modern slavery and human
trafficking has become a cause celebre. Yet large numbers of
researchers, non-governmental organizations, trade unions, workers,
and others who would seem like natural allies in the fight against
modern slavery and trafficking are hugely skeptical of these
movements. They object to how the problems are framed, and are
skeptical of the "new abolitionist" movement. Why? This book
tackles key controversies surrounding the anti-slavery and
anti-trafficking movements head on. Champions and skeptics explore
the fissures and fault lines that surround efforts to fight modern
slavery and human trafficking today. These include: whether efforts
to fight modern slavery displace or crowd out support for labor and
migrant rights; whether and to what extent efforts to fight modern
slavery mask, naturalize, and distract from racial, gendered, and
economic inequality; and whether contemporary anti-slavery and
anti-trafficking crusaders' use of history are accurate and
appropriate.
