Yet, by most measures, across many sectors and regions, severe labour exploitation continues to soar. Corporate social responsibility is not working. Why?    In this landmark book, Genevieve LeBaron lifts the lid on a labour governance regime that is severely flawed and limited.  She takes a close-up look at the millions of corporate dollars spent on anti-slavery networks, NGO partnerships, lobbying for new transparency legislation, and investment in social auditing and ethical certification schemes, to show how such efforts serve to bolster corporate growth and legitimacy as well as government reputations, whilst failing to protect the world’s most vulnerable workers.   To eradicate modern slavery and human trafficking in global supply chains a new approach is needed; one that confronts corporate power and profits, dismantles exploitative business models, and regulates the booming private industry of accounting firms, social auditors, and consultants that has emerged to ‘monitor’ and ‘enforce’ labour standards. Only worker-driven initiatives that uphold fundamental rights can protect workers in the contemporary global economy and make forced labour a thing of the past.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49520729129233,"sku":"GOR012513783","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49732388028689,"sku":"NGR9781509513673","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50666829185297,"sku":"GOR014029681","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53158336102673,"sku":"CIN1509513671VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1509513671.jpg?v=1751372773"},{"product_id":"fighting-modern-slavery-and-human-trafficking-book-genevieve-lebaron-9781108822404","title":"Fighting Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking","description":"Over the last two decades, fighting modern slavery and human trafficking has become a cause célèbre. Yet large numbers of researchers, non-governmental organizations, trade unions, workers, and others who would seem like natural allies in the fight against modern slavery and trafficking are hugely skeptical of these movements. They object to how the problems are framed, and are skeptical of the “new abolitionist” movement. Why? This book tackles key controversies surrounding the anti-slavery and anti-trafficking movements head on. Champions and skeptics explore the fissures and fault lines that surround efforts to fight modern slavery and human trafficking today. These include: whether efforts to fight modern slavery displace or crowd out support for labor and migrant rights; whether and to what extent efforts to fight modern slavery mask, naturalize, and distract from racial, gendered, and economic inequality; and whether contemporary anti-slavery and anti-trafficking crusaders' use of history are accurate and appropriate.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50371010527505,"sku":"CIN1108822401G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50883061055761,"sku":"GOR014103807","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51019813978385,"sku":"NIN9781108822404","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52472629166353,"sku":"NLS9781108822404","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53684170227985,"sku":"GOR015001161","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1108822401.jpg?v=1751081360"},{"product_id":"fighting-modern-slavery-and-human-trafficking-book-genevieve-lebaron-9781108830621","title":"Fighting Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking","description":"Fighting Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking assembles leading social scientists and historians from the Yale Working Group on Modern Slavery to tackle key controversies surrounding the anti-slavery movement, marshalling insights about historic struggles against slavery and bringing these to bear on present day challenges.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52472621596945,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52472622743825,"sku":"NLS9781108830621","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781108830621.jpg?v=1759838838"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-genevieve-lebaron.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
