“This book is a major contribution to research and policy making on
human trafficking. The authors narrate through the dark side of
globalization but offer hope and a way forward for a
trafficking-free world.”
Yakın Ertürk, Middle East Technical University, Turkey, and former
UN Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women “Purkayastha and
Yousaf offer important sociological insights by carefully
considering the challenges and complexities in connecting
frameworks, protocols, and policies to the contexts and conditions
that contribute to the persistence and change in addressing the
social problem of human trafficking.”
Margaret Abraham, Hofstra University, USA, and former President of
the International Sociological Association
”Worth mentioning here (and deserving of praise), is the authors’
particular focus on the literature coming from the Global South, as
these contributions have been mostly sidelined, if not neglected in
the Anglo-centric counter-trafficking literature. The book also
provides narratives (or ‘vignettes’) of victims/survivors of
trafficking, a practice rare in the literature and
encouraged by the international community. Such an approach
should be both welcomed and reproduced in the literature in the
future.”
