It argues that, contrary to its claims to be 'world-leading', the Modern Slavery Act is inconsistent, inadequate and punitive; and that the UK government, through its labour market and immigration policies, is actually creating the conditions for slavery to be promoted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Colleen Theron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1447346793\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447346791\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.80d","brand":"Colleen Theron","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088290558207,"sku":"9781447346791","price":127.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_976e8fb2-ff5a-4970-8e4b-710e32ecfa97.jpg?v=1769104091","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-modern-slavery-agenda-colleen-theron-9781447346791","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
