This work analyses contemporary slave work from three standpoints: historical, conceptual and politics of confrontation. It has adopted a methodology of qualitative approach and is supported by documented as well as bibliographical research. The first standpoint aims at building some understanding of the phenomenon in its formation process to the workforce exploitation in the countryside from its history. The second standpoint approaches contemporary slave work itself, as it proposes some thought on the conceptual limits given to the phenomenon under the light of the various theorical perspectives ,and analyses the normative treatment applied to the issue under a perspective of the legislation of international and internal law. The third standpoint discusses how the State operates concerning this issue and focuses on an analysis of the policies which fight slave work. It concludes that contemporary slave work is an ultimate expression of the biggest degradation of the relation and conditions of work and that it materializes itself in the exploitation of workforce under coercion. It is a phenomenon widely inserted in the capitalist logic, becoming a strategic mechanism which allows and makes its accumulation easier under specific circumstances. This work signals that the emergency of confrontation politics, present in the National Plan of Eradication of Slave Work, results from an intense process of social mobilization as well as from international pressure. Despite the advances brought by the referred politics, its whole implementation still has not occurred and measures which are extremely important are yet to be carried out.
