3071-The political economy of new slavery

Acknowledgements
The production of an edited collection like this one involves work and
support from too many people to thank personally. Here, I would like
to thank the British International Studies Association for their financial
support of the workshop where the chapters in this book were first
presented. A big thank you to Helen Harris at the Centre for the Study
of Global Ethics who ensured the workshop was able to run smoothly.
Thanks are also due to Tim Shaw for his contributions to the workshop
and for adopting the present volume as a part of his International
Political Economy series. Many thanks, too, to Palgrave’s Amanda
Watkins for her support of this project. I would also like to express my
gratitude to all contributors for their commitment and their flexibility
in accepting my editorial suggestions. Many thanks to Louise Shorter,
who kindly helped to get the final manuscript looking the part. Finally,
thank you to all readers who take the time to read our work and pass on
the baton in the campaign against contemporary slavery.
