With tourism accounting for approximately thirty percent of the
Caribbean's GDP and twenty-four percent of employment, a link
between the sex trade and the tourism industry has gained recent
attention. Shifts in global production, an increase of disposable
income for pleasure and recreation, and a desire by North Americans
and Europeans for an experience of 'exotic' cultures, are often
claimed to be the cause. This volume explores the connections
between the global economy and sex work, focusing on the
experiences and views of women, men, and children who sell sex.
Apart from attention to sex tourism in Cuba, the Dominican
Republic, Barbados, and Jamaica, the book also examines sex work in
the gold mining industry in the hinterlands of Suriname and Guyana,
and in the entertainment sector in Belize and the Dutch Antilles.
It presents new insights into the Caribbean sex trade and provides
proposals and strategies for addressing the situation in the
twenty-first century.
