Biography
Anne-Marie Greenslade is a senior lecturer in law at Leeds Beckett University, UK.
This volume constitutes an indispensable tool for any researcher, practitioner, and decision maker who aims to gain a thorough grasp of the modern slavery landscape in the UK – from policy and legislation to criminal justice and third sector, trauma-informed support. The book is rooted in extensive literature research, professional experience, and sound analysis of the voice of frontline practitioners. The volume offers an innovative, critical overview of the survivor pathway, and it is a guide to improve the anti-slavery system thanks to the author’s sensitive identification of current challenges, limitations, and good practices.
Runa Lazzarino, Research Fellow in Migration and Health, Middlesex University London.
This volume represents an exciting and much needed addition to the literature on modern slavery and human trafficking in the UK context. The author has a uniquely clear and accessible style of communicating the complexity of this issue, with survivor wellbeing at the heart of the account, while at the same time highlighting the many challenges within legislation and policy. Crucially though, and informed no doubt by her practitioner background, she also highlights examples of excellent practice and offers a guide for improved anti-slavery interventions.
