Slavery Past, Present and Future

Is slavery an inevitable part of the human condition? Controversial
estimates indicate that up to 35 million people worldwide are enslaved.
This modern re-emergence of slavery following abolition over two hundred
years ago, is said to be linked to the deepening interconnectedness of
countries in the global economy, overpopulation, and the economic and
other vulnerabilities of the individual victims and communities.

This conference will explore slavery in all its dimensions and, in
particular, the ways in which we understand and attempt to respond to it.
