Paperback. Condition: New. Patterns of prostitution, like so much else in our increasingly inter-connected world, are changing radically, as the investigations in this volume dramatically show. The question of migrant prostitutes in the West may be much debated, but it is little researched. This collection makes a radical break…with the current media focus on human trafficking and the old habit of simply blaming the victim. What emerges is a nuanced and empirically grounded portrait of the complexities of prostitution across national boundaries today.As befits a subject with such huge consequences for the lives of people, this volume includes personal testimony alongside sociological investigation. Testimony comes from both prostitutes and clients. Men are dealt with as customers; as creators of dominant European notions of sexuality, race and prostitution; and as prostitutes themselves selling services to women tourists.The experiences of women who migrate to the West and work there as prostitutes are sensitively described. It becomes clear that their lives and aspirations are much more complicated than is usually assumed, and that easy generalizations about trafficking and forced labour do not always hold up.Of particular interest are the volume's explorations of innovative new policies being pioneered in the Netherlands and Sweden as well as the impact of rising anti-immigrant feeling.The authors include both scholars and activists. It is their hope that this book will raise the level of debate and contribute to a more humane approach.

Contact seller4-star sellerSoft cover. Condition: Good. Gender and Slum Culture in Urban Asia Gender and Slum Culture in Urban Asia By: Thorbek, Susanne Rapid urbanization has always spawned slums. But what are they like to live in? And particularly for women? This study of slum culture and gender relations compares two slums in Asiaâ"Ratmalana in Colombo… and Khlong Toey in Bangkokâ"and shows how the impact of urbanization, economic change and national politics has differed significantly in Sri Lanka and Thailand, despite their common cultural background of Theravada Buddhism. The book explores the impact of these differences on gender relations and the lives of the very poorest men and women. Dr. Thorbek, a Danish sociologist, discusses how gender identity is defined; the contradictions between culture as publicly expressed and privately practiced in womenâs daily activities; and how female identity may be understood in each country. As in her previous, highly acclaimed Voices from the City Women of Bangkok (Zed Books, 1987), the author allows the women in the slums to speak through her pages. PRINT London 1994, WL CODE I8373 SIZE 233 pp., 15 pp. illus., 135 x 215 mm BOOK WEIGHT 0.260 Kg PACKING WEIGHT 0.200 Kg.
