Child slavery now – A contemporary reader

Autor Gary Craig
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 oct 2010
Most slave trades were abolished during the 19th century yet there remain millions of people in slavery today, amongst them approximately 210 million children in slavery, trafficked, in debt bondage and other forms of forced labour. This groundbreaking book, drawing on experience worldwide, shows how children remain locked in slavery, the ways in which they are exploited and how they can be emancipated. Written for policy and political actors, academics and activists, it reminds us also that all are implicated in modern childhood slavery - as consumers - and need both to understand its causes, and act to stop it.

Recenzii

The issue of modern child slavery is plagued with self-aggrandisement, shoddy research, and sensationalism. Child slavery now is a powerful antidote to this trend. Gary Craig brings together real experts and deep thinkers to carry our understanding of this crime far beyond sad stories and emotional appeals. This book is an intellectual toolbox for liberation. If you are a serious abolitionist you need this book. Dr Kevin Bales, President and Co-Founder, Free the Slaves

This wide-ranging book argues convincingly for a systematic approach to ending child slavery. It is a major contribution to the academic understanding of child slavery worldwide necessary for ending slavery in all its contemporary facets. Christien van den Anker, Reader in Politics, University of the West of England, Bristol

...is a major contribution to the academic understanding of child slavery worldwide. Deidre Horgan in Community Development
