Opis

Discussing the multinational networks, global economics, and personal motives that fuel a multibillion dollar trade in human beings as cheap labour, Borderline Slavery suggests future directions for effective policies and law enforcement strategies to prevent the advance of trafficking. As such, it is of interest to both policy makers and scholars across the social sciences working in the fields of migration, exploitation and trafficking.

Recenzje

'This magnificent, yet painful-to-read volume offers theoretically rich yet grounded and accessible chapters on modern-day trafficking in human beings. The volume covers the global to local: world economic systems and United Nations actions to various parts of the U.S.-Mexico border and the NGO activists and law enforcement personnel therein.' Kathleen Staudt, University of Texas at El Paso, USA
