“…The term that is most often used to denote such labour relationships is unfree labour (Andrijasevic and Novitz, 2020; Banaji, 2010; Barrientos, 2013; Barrientos et al, 2013; Brass, 1999, 2011, 2017; Frantz, 2013; Fudge, 2018; Gore and LeBaron, 2019; Kothari, 2013; LeBaron, 2015; LeBaron and Phillips, 2019; Lerche, 2007; Morgan and Olsen, 2014; Strauss and McGrath, 2017; Rioux et al, 2020; LeBaron and Phillips, 2019). Other terms such as neo-bondage (Breman, 1996; Mezzadri, 2017), modern/new/contemporary slavery (Bales, 2012; International Labour Organization (ILO), 2017; McGrath, 2013a, 2013b; Miers, 2000), bonded labour (Damir-Geilsdorf, 2016; Srivastava, 2005) or forced/coerced labour (Allamby et al, 2011; ILO, 2017; Lerche, 2007; Phillips, 2013; Phillips and Mieres, 2014; Strauss, 2012; Van der Linden and Rodríguez García, 2016; Verité, 2014) are less frequently used. The main reason the term unfree labour is so widely used is the fact that slavery and forced labour are legal categories.…”
