From the Back Cover
Explores the concept of slavery in political thought past and present What makes a slave a slave, and what does it mean to think about slavery as a political question? This book examines slavery and freedom as founding narratives of the liberal subject and of modernity, and asks what happens when we try to bring slaves back into history, and into the history of political thought in particular. Bringing together scholarship on both 'old' and 'new' slavery, the book assesses the work of Aristotle, Locke, Hegel, Kant, Wollstonecraft and Mill, as well as exploring the contemporary concerns of human trafficking and the prison industrial complex to consider the limitations of 'new slavery' discourse. Laura Brace is Associate Professor in Political Theory at the University of Leicester. She is author of The Politics of Property (Edinburgh University Press, 2004) Cover design: www.richardbudddesign.com
