Migration, Prostitution, and Human Trafficking examines the nature,
magnitude, and gravity of prostitution and sex trafficking--and the
relationship between them--in contemporary China. By researching
the backgrounds, circumstances, and other factors that drive
Chinese women to migrate to Shenzhen, China, Liu hopes to shed
light on the underlying reasons for their entry into the sex
industry.
Migration, Prostitution, and Human Trafficking examines the nature,
magnitude, and gravity of prostitution and sex trafficking--and the
relationship between them--in contemporary China. By researching
the backgrounds, circumstances, and other factors that drive
Chinese women to migrate to Shenzhen, China, Liu hopes to shed
light on the underlying reasons for their entry into the sex
industry. She details Chinese legislation and governmental
practices for dealing with human trafficking and prostitution. Liu
argues that the Chinese government is not aware of the severity of
this problem due to lack of information. The author begins by
examining the historical roots of prostitution in China and
provides the theoretical framework and historical background for
the topic. She then explores the methodology of the study
conducted--in-depth interviews, statistics, government documents,
and personal observation. Data collected examines the lives of
individual women before they became involved in prostitution and
after. And finally, she discusses prostitution laws in China and
draws conclusions about motivations for human trafficking--both
from the perspective of the trafficker and the victim. This
imaginative effort provides a comprehensive look at Chinese migrant
women in Shenzhen, China, and how they have become involved in
prostitution and human trafficking. It is the author's hope that
increased awareness will lead to legislation that will stop this
kind of exploitation. Prostitution is a global issue; its special
dimensions in an expanding, market-driven economy encased in a
communist political system are explored with candor and
understanding. Liu deals with inherited issues and current
practices in an entirely unique manner.
