Slavery Today (Groundwork Guides, 8) - Tapa dura

Twenty-seven million people--young and old, men and women--are locked in bondage worldwide. In rich countries, slaves are forced to work as servants, agricultural workers, and prostitutes. In the developing world, slaves are indentured in agriculture, small factories, the fishing industry, and thousands of other back-breaking jobs. Slavery Today traces the products created by this inhuman system from the jungle and farm through the global markets into our lives and homes.
