This paper is not meant to advocate slavery but to explain possible reasons for it today, morally speaking.
The paper distinguishes between a):involuntary or compelled slavery and b):voluntary or chosen servitude.
After some historical considerations and clarifications, I shall discuss a possible case for voluntary slavery, drawing chiefly on the ideas put forward by the libertarian philosopher Robert Nozick.
Involuntary or forced slavery may seem at first morally abhorrent but I shall also briefly explain its possible grounds.
