Human Trafficking and Modern Slavery Law and Practice

By Philippa Southwell, Ben Douglas-Jones QC, Michelle Brewer, et al.

This essential guide sets out the core legal and procedural issues for developing principled litigation and compliance strategies in human trafficking and modern slavery cases. Bridging disciplines and jurisdictions, the text draws on domestic, European, and international frameworks.
The codification of slavery, forced labour, servitude, and trafficking is analysed in depth, with clear explanations of how recent reforms, including the Modern Slavery Act 2015, Nationality and Borders Act 2022, and Illegal Migration Act 2023, reshape UK law and its relationship with international standards, including the evolving International Criminal Court jurisprudence.
The Third Edition features expanded coverage with new chapters on supply chain accountability, transnational corporate remedies, and trauma-informed practice. Recognised as the practitioner's 'bible', it remains the definitive single-source reference for this complex and evolving field.
