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.

The
above subsection has a number
of very important articles-
including one (5a) from the
Washington Post (2007)
which states that despite the
best efforts of all the anti-
trafficking organizations
which receive millions of
government dollars, actual
trafficked victims are just
not being found...

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...

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)

“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...”

“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

“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.”

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

“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. “

“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.”
