And Never Find Frogs In Your Underwear

Ending Slavery, de Kevin Bales

XXI century slaves are a vast legion: 27 million people. They have three things in common: they have removed the will, they are controlled by violence, exploitative economicamente.Y not only in the countries in process of development, but dairy farms in the United States and Japan. Bales is president of Free the Slave and author of several other books on the subject, is a specialist in the fight against slavery and has spent years conducting research to understand the phenomenon and ways to combat it. This particular book is a good book, which shows that this tragedy can be overcome if everyone does their part. First are some cases of enclaves released, and analyzed the figures of the "liberators", ordinary people performing heroic work. And from the success stories, practical suggestions are brought to communities where there are enclaves working for governments and ciutadana, for the United Nations, the World Bank and World Trade Organization, for consumers and businesses. An important book on a phenomenon that we usually ignore or belonging to marginal and remote regions.
