| Virtually every country in the world is affected by the crime of human trafficking. More than 700,000 people are trafficked across international borders every year for sexual exploitation, forced labour, sales of body parts and many other reasons. Most of them are women and children. Women are particularly vulnerable to trafficking, due largely to poverty and the persistent gender inequalities they face. More than ever, globalisation has encouraged new routes and new methods to exploit women and children for profit. In this issue of Agenda, writers reflect on different approaches to combat trafficking, discuss legislation and lacks thereof, scrutinise limitations of anti-trafficking programmes and suggest ways forward. Contents: Human rights focus on trafficked women: An international law and feminist perspective (Annette Lansink) * Potential gender dimensions of a kidney trafficking market in South Africa (Gerard Boyce) * South African anti-trafficking legislation: A critique of control over womens freedom (Anna Weekes) * Disaggregating vulnerabilities Trafficking, HIV and AIDS in South Asia (Vicci Tallis) * Gendered poverty breeds trafficking for sexual exploitation purposes in Zambia (Merab Kambamu Kiremire) * Legal implications of international baby selling - Country of origin: Albania (Ina Farka) * Structural relations of the sex trade and its link to trafficking: The case of Ghana (Nancy Ansah) * Asian women struggle to gain footing in Britain's job market (Arthi Sanpath) * Human trafficking as a form of gender-based violence - protecting the victim (Joy Watson and Christine Silkstone) * Invisible maids: Slavery and soap operas in Northeast Brazil (Lisa Brown) * NGOs fear 2010 soccer world cup will increase trafficking of women and girls (Arthi Sanpath) | |
