From cleaning to construction, from agriculture to domestic work,
every day migrant labourers are exploited and enslaved. Extra hours
are squeezed out of Polish food packers, and trafficked African
children are used for forced labour. Low wages are used to drive
down prices from the oil industry to airport services. In this
book, Toby Shelley shows that current unprecedented flows of
migrant workers are a direct result of economic liberalization. The
appalling conditions and legal abuses which confront these workers
are not a premodern aberration, but an integral part of the global
economy. Shelley argues that even governments, keen to protect big
business, are complicit in this exploitation; their 'law and order'
approach on immigration being part of this complicity. Based on
interviews and investigations with workers, unionists and
activists, Exploited is a powerful and shocking read.
