Opis

This book analyzes the contemporary effects of anti-trafficking policies on children trafficked for labour.It explores different dimensions of private and public apparatuses through which the governmentality of child trafficking manifests itself at a regional and interregional level. It investigates questions linked to the diffusion of the child trafficking norm between and within regions and stakeholders; to the criminalization and vulnerabilization of child traffickees; and to private governance of anti-trafficking initiatives, in particular concerning social sustainability of business supply chains. Drawing on extensive fieldwork with government, police, justice, civil society, multilateral organizations, and businesses in the EU and in ASEAN, the book argues that child traffickees are subjected not only to physical and psychological violence but also to structural violence. The book concludes with suggestions to improve current anti-trafficking regimes.This book will be of key interest to scholars, students, and practitioners in EU Studies, Southeast Asian Studies, Regionalism, Human Rights, Law, International Relations, and International Political Economy.Chapters 3, 6, and the Conclusion of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.
