Opis

Human trafficking, forced labour, unlawful migration and slavery remain politically loaded, empirically obtuse and ambiguous terms that fail to impact on creating better livelihoods. This book builds on the authors previous book "Sex Trafficking "to re-examine international counter-trafficking scholarship and policy and re-engage with the original data to produce a renewed call for specific forms of research and inquiry to better understand and respond to the range of exploitative practices and conditions that give rise to human trafficking.

This book makes a significant contribution to critical feminist scholarship as well as the burgeoning field of crimmigration. It argues that exploitation sits at the nexus of global migration patterns and emphasizes the importance of speaking to those directly affected by counter trafficking policies and those directly involved in their implementation in order to produce empirical data to inform how we make sense of the numbers that are produced, the outcome of the policies and how we ought to determine success in this context."
