(i) Modern Slavery (People as Property)

Modern slavery-related crimes encompass some of the worst abuses of humanity, by humanity. [Legislators] have a critical role in combatting these abuses; nationally, by ensuring effective legislation is in place, and internationally, by the setting and sharing of best practice laws and initiatives to ensure a globally coordinated approach to eradicate these crimes. (Commonwealth Parliamentary Association)

With reference to the law in England and Wales, critically examine the adequacy of the legislative framework in combatting modern slavery.

A literature survey is normally a focus on relevant literature in the area of research. Within the definition of literature, we can include both classic literature (articles, books, chapters and like documents) as well as other relevant literature (reports by national and international bodies, briefings, position papers, analyses and other research by NGOs, statements by national and international bodies and individual actors etc).

The purpose here is to use your analysis of the literature to help support you to make an argument that responds to the question being asked in your topic area. As such, your analysis of the literature has to be balanced, i.e., it must consider both those things that support your argument as well as the things that challenge or deny the validity of your argument.

You must also be able to assess the quality of the literature you identify in your research, going beyond the materials already supplied. Quality is essential and you must come to a judgment on the materials you find that is both critical and carefully weighed. In other words, the better the materials, the more believable and cogent your arguments will be.

Please mention:
– poor accommodation conditions (victims of modern slavery)
-language barrier
-debt bondage (victims cannot leave due to the debt)
