When slavery is mentioned, we often think of cotton and sugar plantations and Africans being taken away and sold in open markets.

UNSW’s Associate Professor Justine Nolan and Dr Martjn Boersma from UTS School of Business have collaborated on “Addressing Modern Slavery” a new book due out in September.
