Modern Kölelik ve Modern Köleliğin Görünümleri

Abstract

Kölelik, geçmişi insanlığın başlangıcına kadar uzanan bir kavramdır. Tarihsel
süreç içerisinde kölelik, gerek teolojik yaklaşımlarla ve gerekse de çeşitli yasal
düzenlemelerle yasaklanmışsa da hiçbir zaman ortadan kalkmamıştır. Günümüzde
köleliğin neo-liberal küreselleşme sürecinde geçmiştekinden farklı bir yapıya
büründüğüne dair ciddi tartışmalar söz konusudur. Bu tartışmaların anahtar kavramı
“modern kölelik”tir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, modern kölelik kavramına ilişkin
teorik bir çerçeve sunmak ve modern köleliği Uluslararası Çalışma Örgütü, İnsan
Hakları İzleme Örgütü ve Özgür Yürü Vakfı tarafından yayınlanan verilerle yorumlamaktır
