This hugely topical book, by a team of high-profile activists and expert writers, is the first to critically assess the legislation, using evidence from across the field, and to offer strategies for improvement in policy and practice. It argues that, contrary to its claims to be ‘world-leading’, the Modern Slavery Act is inconsistent, inadequate and punitive; and that the UK government, through its labour market and immigration policies, is actually creating the conditions for slavery to be promoted.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: HistoryTopic: Law & PoliticsAuthor: Vicky BrothertonRelease Year: 2019 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
