We are in the process of uploading the pdfs for these titles-  and will link them as soon as we do... meanwhile you are welcome to search google for the articles. Please check back later.

These are not sorted alphabetically (or any other sorting at this time). Articles and authors which are anti-prostitution are highlighted in yellow. We provide links to such articles because we believe that the more you know, the more you will support decriminalization of all consenting adult commercial sex and ancillary activities which also are consensual. [While some might believe the BS perpetuated by the radical leftist feminists and religious right, there are adults who feel more comfortable working for an employer such as the owner of an escort service, brothel, etc. which under current law calls such employers "pimps" because they negotiate fees and receive a portion of the fees for their services. Other people in the entertainment industry (of which sex work is a part)- such as actors, musicians, writers, etc. are able to hire people who provide those services for them, and such people are called "agents" and "managers" who also receive a fee from the entertainer and no one finds this objectionable.]

History of Prostitution as Trafficking Issue- How the ‘moral panic’ over the ‘white slave trade’ of the late 19th and early 20th century became the moral and social panic over sex trafficking of the present.  Article 1A is especially important to explain the lies and false premises that triggered the hysteria over 100 years ago, which are still employed today to continue the panic of the so called sex slave trade.

Perfect Victims and Real Survivors: 

The Iconic Victim in Domestic Human Trafficking Law

 

JAYASHRI SRIKANTIAH

Associate Professor of Law and Director, Immigrants’ Rights Clinic, Stanford Law  Sch ool

Feb. 2007

Boston University Law Review 

Comments/ Notes Subsection 6

....The abolitionist view espoused by the Bush administration is that sex work is inherently non-consensual. Victims of sex trafficking are passive as to their exploitation because the nature of sex work is such that consent is impossible.

Focus on iconic victims who are completely helpless victims of sex trafficking leaves little room for victims of trafficking for forced labor...

Redefining Prostitution as Sex Work on the International Agenda

Jo Bindman, Anti- Slavery International

Jo Doezema, Network of Sex Work Projects

June 1997

Anti- Slavery International

Comments/ Notes Subsection 7

Until sex work is recognized as work, and it is understood that there are many men, women and transgendered persons who choose to engage in sex work- for whatever reason, those who are truly victims of coercion and violence do not have a chance to be acknowledged as such. Resources are squandered by law enforcement agencies going after everyone involved in prostitution rather than listening to the sex workers who are most likely to know who is and isn’t a victim and who is  trafficking underage persons and forcing anyone into sex slavery (which is much different than prostitution)

Sex, slaves and citizens: the politics of

anti-trafficking

Bridget Anderson and Rutvica Andrijasevic

Winter 2008

Soundings, Winter, Issue 40

Comments/ Notes Subsection 8

“Trafficking is in the news. Thousands of individuals, hundreds of groups, dozens of newspapers are determined to stamp it out. This focus on trafficking consistently reflects and reinforces deep public concern about prostitution/sex work.. to challenge the expression... is akin to saying that one endorses slavery or is against motherhood and apple pie... But we believe it is necessary to tread  the line of challenging motherhood and apple pie while not endorsing slavery, because the moral panic over trafficking is diverting attention from the structural causes of the abuse of migrant workers...”

Kicking Down the Door: The Use of Raids to Fight Trafficking in Persons

(?) 2009

Sex Workers Project

Comments/ Notes Subsection 9

“These raids are ugly and horrible. They…bang on the door, they break the door, they come in with the guns out! In the beginning, it’s frightening and upsetting. [Law enforcement] could do anything, you don’t know what they are going to do. … It’s really horrible, sometimes if they are very angry, they don’t let you get dressed. They take you in your work clothes. … One never lets go of the fear. Being afraid never goes away. They provoke that.” Celia, arrested seven timese without being screened for trafficking

The Politics of Human Trafficking

Neil Howard and  Mumatz Lalani

April 2008

St. Anthony’s International Review,  Volume 4, Number 1, 

Comments/ Notes Subsection 11

“Though much contemporary coverage depicts human trafficking as a terrifying new phenomenon situated within very original debates as to how it should be stopped, Kemala Kempadoo, amongst others, has detailed a historical context and discursive tradition that dates back over a century. In late nineteenth century Europe and North America, she

explains, the increasing social and physical mobility of unaccompanied women provoked a conservative moralistic Victorian outcry against what was seen as a threat to the very fabric of society.”

Prostitution Policies and Sex Trafficking: Assessing the use of prostitution based policies as tools for combating sex trafficking

Victoria Hayes 

Fall 2008

Kentlaw.edu final paper

Comments/ Notes Subsection 12

This paper explores the relationship between prostitution and sex trafficking, examining the use of prostitution-based policies as a tool for combating sex trafficking and assessing the value of focusing on these prostitution-based policies in the battle against sex trafficking. The first section describes the international definition of trafficking in human beings and its position on regulating prostitution. The second section outlines the four general approaches to prostitution legislation: complete criminalization, partial decriminalization, decriminalization, and legalization

Prostitution, Sex Work and Violence:

Discursive and Political Contexts for

Five Texts on Paid Sex, 1987–2001

Svati P. Shah

November 2004

Gender & History, Vol.16 No.3, pp. 794–812.

Comments/ Notes Subsection 13

“Feminist debates on prostitution are critically informed and, in some instances, shaped by their engagements with violence in gendered exploitation. The physical and symbolic practices of violence experienced by women selling sexual services together comprise an abiding feature of arguments against prostitution altogether, and one of the main points of

contention between prostitution abolitionists, and advocates of the rights of prostitutes/sex workers. “

Behind Closed Doors: An Analysis of Indoor Sex Work in New York City

Juhu Thukral, Esq.,     Melissa Ditmore, Ph.D., and Alexandra Murphy

(?) 2005

Sex Workers Project at the Urban Justice Center

Comments/ Notes Subsection 14

“In recent years, the United States government has turned its attention to the issue of human trafficking with renewed vigor. This focus has culminated in national legislation, the Trafficking Victims Protect Act (TVPA) of 2000.9 The TVPA aims to “combat trafficking in persons, a contemporary manifestation of slavery whose victims are predominantly women and children, to ensure just and effective punishment of traffickers, and to protect their victims.”
