Based on interviews and participatory research, this book explores Thai women's experiences of the global sex trade. Kaoru Aoyama questions the long-standing feminist debate concerning how these women identify themselves: as sex workers, or sex slaves, while also considering the issues of gender, deviance, and migration.
Exploring sexwork and trafficking in a globalized culture and economy, this book offers a critique of increasingly stringent policing worldwide following the UN protocol against trafficking in persons. It highlights the grey area between sex work and trafficking and draws on the themes of gender, migration and deviance.
