Child Labour in Global Society

Child Labour in Global Society is a critical response to the modern educational regime, compulsory schooling and the slavery industry in a globalizing world; to evolving and exploitative notions of slavery; to definitions of slavery in international law; to approaches to educational labour, including in international human rights law; and to cultural, common-sense and professional perspectives on slavery and educational labour, in the light of which it is arguable that children’s slave labour in modern and modernizing societies is grossly under-estimated and otherwise greatly, if conveniently, misrepresented.
