"MODERN slavery is now a fundamental part of the globalised economy. You have people in desperate need who are now able to travel, and unscrupulous people around the world who are prepared to flout laws and morals for a higher profit. Every country on Earth has a law banning slavery, but enforcing that law, especially in today's deregulated economic system, is very difficult. According to research accepted by the US government, it is cheaper to purchase a slave today than it was at the height of the Atlantic slave trade."
[excerto da entrevista com um jornalista que é autor de uma série documental sobre a escravatura no século XXI, que está a passar na Al Jazeera]
