Identifying a Cross-Disciplinary Dialogue examples in which statelessness and slavery overlap in the Americas (among Dominicans of Haitian descent, and among Venezuelan migrants in Colombia) and suggests shared research for advocates to measure slavery and statelessness and understand their occurrence in these contexts which include de jure and de facto statelessness. While a one-size-fits-all approach is not appropriate for all human rights work, these commentaries invite readers to consider how these ways of understanding and responding to modern slavery might contribute to research on statelessness. In turn, I believe, greater attentiveness to how statelessness occurs, and to the vulnerabilities it creates, can deepen anti-slavery work. Statelessness and slavery have already been addressed together in research by experts in both areas. I hope this symposium forms part of a continued dialogue on shared challenges faced by scholars, advocates and policy makers working on slavery and on statelessness, and the methods developed to overcome them. 140
