Summary: | The book Trafficking and Prostitution Reconsidered edited by Kamala Kempadoo and others, challenges the traditional discourse and rhetoric around human trafficking, voluntary and involuntary migration and voluntary and forced prostitution; in order to reframe the discussion of this problem within a human rights perspective. The book is a compilation of edited essays that cover the pertinent themes and sub themes that need to be considered to properly understand these issues. It is divided into four parts with each part covering a broad theme with the summarised themes being: shifting paradigms/globalisation; the complexities of sex work; reports from the field; and looking back and looking forward. |
