Human trafficking is consistently featured on the global political
agenda. This book examines the trafficking of adult female victims
for sexual exploitation, and specifically the understanding of
consent and its influence in the identification and treatment of
trafficking victims. Jessica Elliott argues that when applied to
situations of human trafficking, migration and sexual exploitation,
the notion of consent presents problems which current international
laws are unable to address. Establishing the presence of 'coercion'
and a lack of consent can be highly problematic, particularly in
situations of human trafficking and exploitative prostitution;
activities which may be deemed inherently coercive and
problematically clandestine. By examining legal definitions of
human trafficking in international instruments and their domestic
implementation in different countries, the book explores victimhood
in the context of exploitative migration, and argues that no clear
line can be drawn between those who have been smuggled, trafficked,
or 'consensually trafficked' into a situation of exploitation. The
book will be great use and interest to students and researchers of
migration law, transnational criminal law, and gender studies.
