Human sex trafficking is believed to the most common form of
modern day slavery. The victims of domestic and international sex
trafficking are estimated to be in the millions. Most of these
victims are female and children. They are enslaved in the
commercial sex industry for little or no money.
This book will explore human sex trafficking in several nations
of origin and destination. This book will explore sex trafficking
from the perspective that understanding its causes requires
attention to global conditions while responding to it requires
attention to local laws, policies and practices. Social service
workers will need to understand how and why trafficking victims
find it difficult to break free and why many victims will not
cooperate with those persons who are attempting to assist them.
This book will be useful to anti-trafficking agencies and
personnel who wish to further understand the nature and extent of
human sex trafficking in the U.S. and in countries of destination
for sex trafficking. In addition, this book will be of use to
students of human rights and social justice who want to join the
effort to abolish human sex trafficking in our lifetime.
This book was published as a special issue of Women &
Criminal Justice.
