註釋At the most basic level, slavery is a social and economic relationship that is played out in systematic ways. It has patterns of expression; it is grounded in cultures and societies. Many patterns of enslavement have been in use for long periods, though small or large changes over time in those patterns are to be expected. This paper assesses existing measures of slavery and forced labor, presents a modest test of an aggregate level analysis of what predicts slavery, and explores the methodological challenges faced by those who hope to research modern slavery and forced labor. Recommendations are offered for improving the quality of data and the methodological approach to contemporary slavery.
