Summary, etc |
Counter<br/>This groundbreaking book explodes several myths: that selling sex is completely different from any other kind of work, that migrants who sell sex are passive victims and that the multitude of people out to save them are without self-interest. Laura Agusti;n makes a passionate case against these stereotypes, arguing that the label "trafficked" does not accurately describe all migrants' lives and that the "rescue industry" can serve to disempower them. Based on extensive research., this book provides a radically different analysis of migrants make rational choices to travel and work in the sex industry. |
