这篇简短的专题介绍为文章的收集提供了背景，将它们定位在关于全球经济中劳动条件的辩论中。它概述了两个中心问题，使研讨会充满活力。首先，在当代全球经济中，不自由的劳动力采取何种形式，在不同情况下对最弱势工人有何影响？第二，哪些过程、条件和动力产生和促进了非自由劳动，我们需要哪些理论和分析视角来理解它们？它总结了对这些问题的一些回应，这些问题出现在收集的文章中，并强调了他们对推进关于不自由劳动的新思维方式的贡献。
This short introduction to the symposium sets the context for the collection of articles, locating them in debates about labour conditions in the global economy. It outlines the two central questions which animate the symposium. First, what forms do unfree labour take in the contemporary global economy, and what are the implications for the most vulnerable workers in diverse contexts? Second, which processes, conditions and dynamics generate and facilitate unfree labour, and which theoretical and analytical perspectives do we need in order to understand them? It summarises some of responses to these questions which emerge in the collected articles, and highlights their contributions to the task of advancing fresh ways of thinking about unfree labour.
