Trafficking and Global Crime Control

First Edition
  • Maggy Lee - University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong


December 2010 | 192 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd

In a world where global flows of people and commodities are on the increase, crimes related to illegal trafficking are creating new concerns for society. This in turn has brought about new and contentious forms of regulation, surveillance, and control. There is a pressing need to consider both the problem itself, and the impact of international anti-trafficking responses.

This authoritative work examines key issues and debates on sex and labor trafficking, drawing on theoretical, empirical, and comparative material to inform the discussion of major trends and future directions. The text brings together key criminological and sociological literature on migration studies, gender, globalization, human rights, security, victimology, policing, and control to provide the most complete overview available on the subject.

Suitable for students and scholars in criminology, criminal justice and sociology, this book sheds unique light on this highly topical and complex subject.

A well presented work which reinforces the subject of State Crime and Globalization and provides students with a very essential understanding of the problems created by the subject matter. It is a work that fits neatly into the present module which investigates the concept of global crime from the levels of globalization, terrorism and state crime.
