theory of trafficking and modern slavery with implications for
policy. Despite economic development, modern slavery persists all
around the world. The issue is not only one of crime but the
regulation of the economy, better welfare and social protections.
Going beyond polarised debates on the sex trade, an original
empirical analysis shows the importance of profit-taking. Although
individual experience matters, the root causes lie in intersecting
regimes of inequality of gender regimes, capitalism, and the
legacies of colonialism. This book shows the importance of coercion
and the societal complexities that perpetuate modern slavery.
