| | comerţ cu sclavi | Explanation:
The word slavery is used to describe a number of related conditions involving control of a person against his or her will, enforced by violence or other, clear forms of coercion. It almost always occurs for the purpose of securing the labour of the person or people concerned. A specific form, *** chattel slavery***, involved the legal ownership of a person or people, which is now illegal in all countries. When this article refers to people as "slaves" today, it is simply describing the conditions in which they are held, not the law.
