Publisher Description: In this book, the author examines human trafficking for sexual exploitation from a combined global and local perspective. The author explores global patterns of trafficking, and then compares them with detailed field work on the local level in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The author draws comparisons between Bosnia and Herzegovina, the United States, and Turkey, as destination countries for trafficking. This innovative work not only synthesises literature on trafficking, but also provides novel approach to theorising and studying trafficking, which will be of interest to scholars and officials working in the areas of crime and justice, migration, gender studies, as well as social policy and economics. |
