Modern slavery is a complex global problem that extends far beyond the criminal sphere. It has received a lot of attention in recent years, and in many countries the problem has also been addressed on the political agenda. Treating modern slavery as a single problem can quickly become a pitfall, where one overlooks how the problem is part of complex worldwide systems. The course SAM1060E invites you to reflect on ‘modern slavery’ as a global and human rights problem that is rooted in socio-economic challenges and weak social structures. The course will help you see the problem with a critical eye and give you an introduction to some of the causes that underlie structural exploitation: poverty, inequality, migration, abuse, trade, political and cultural structures.
