About the book

"This study of sexwork and trafficking in the globalized culture and economy offers a critique of increasingly stringent policing worldwide following the UN protocol against trafficking in persons. Using original data gathered through participatory action research in Thailand and Japan, the author presents a holistic description of a controversial global phenomenon which successfully links personal troubles to larger social issues in our time. The book depicts both temporal and geographical moves of migrant sexworkers and demonstrates their personal developments. Providing a new perspective on migrant sexwork and trafficking, it highlights the grey area between the two without losing sight of women's agency."--Jacket.
