Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy is a book by Kevin Bales, President of Free the Slaves. It describes modern slavery as a global phenomenon and investigates how it exists in five countries.

Desmond Tutu calls the book “A well-researched, scholarly and deeply disturbing exposé of modern-day slavery with well-thought-out strategies for what to do to combat this scourge. None of us is allowed the luxury of imagined impotence. We can do something about it.”
