Well-known Africanist Suzanne Miers places modern slavery in its historical context, tracing the phenomenal development of the international anti-slavery movement over the last hundred years. She demonstrates how the problems of eradication seem greater and more intractable today than they had ever been with the expansion of slaving to include forced labor, prostitution, and the exploitation of children. Her book will be a valuable resource for readers interested in world history, slavery, human rights, race and ethnic studies, labor and the world economy, and international relations.
