Trabalho análogo à condição de escravo : um estudo de caso das casas de farinha no município de Feira Grande em Alagoas

Abstract

The use of slave labor was a very common practice and accepted by several peoples over the years. This imposed labor force represents a great pulsating force for the economic development of peoples. However, it was only after the 19th century that the commerce of people started to be questioned, thus initiating a movement for the practical prohibition in the legal systems. However, in Brazil, despite the legal prohibition, this still persists, albeit in other ways. In view of this, the present work aims to attract attention to the theme, starting from the analysis of the hypotheses that characterize the condition analogous to that of a slave in the 21st century, as well as exposing the case of the Flour Houses of the Municipality of Feira Grande to exemplify this illicit, at the same time as it presents an application of the current legislation on the subject and the mechanisms for combating and eradicating this type of work.
