Описание: The overarching objective of this volume is to discuss and critique the legal regulation of human trafficking in national and transnational context. Specifically, discussion is needed not only with regard to the historical and philosophical points of departure for any criminalisation of trafficking, but also, regarding the societal and social framework, the empirical dimension such as existing statistics in the area, and the need for more data. The book combines descriptive and normative analyses of the crime of trafficking in human beings from a cross-legal perspective. Notwithstanding the enhanced interest for human trafficking in politics, the public and the media, a critical perspective such as the one pursued herewith has so far been largely absent. Against this background, this approach allows for theoretical findings to be addressed by pointing out and elaborating different, interdisciplinary conflicts and inconsistencies in the regulation of human trafficking. The book discusses the phenomenon of human trafficking critically from various angles, giving it ‘shape’ and showing how it comes to life in the legal regulation.

Описание: This monograph interrogates the International, European and Commonwealth Caribbean approaches to human trafficking from an Analytical Eclectic perspective. It presents a compelling, empirically-based argument that although there is currently a panoply of measures aimed at preventing human trafficking, prosecuting offenders and protecting trafficked victims in both Europe and the Commonwealth Caribbean, the operationalization of these measures has in practice been fraught by a number of challenges, whether of a normative, institutional or individual nature. The continued existence of these challenges strongly suggest that there exists a 'disconnect' between anti-trafficking law and practice, which is not peculiar to small-island developing States as they extend to developed States, including the United Kingdom. Although these challenges are not insurmountable, the monograph advances the argument that sustained social, economic, political and legal commitments are both necessary and desirable, and that without such commitments, only pyrrhic victories would be won in the fight to eradicate the scourge of the 21st century. Given the importance of the issue of human trafficking and its inescapable impact on victims, families, communities, nations, regions and the international community as a whole, it is hoped that this monograph will serve as an important resource for policy makers, scholars, students and practitioners actively working in this increasingly dynamic area of law.

Описание: An analysis of sex trafficking that shows that the public concern for it tends to ignore the actual sex workers involved and instead focus on purportedly humanitarian interventions that mesh comfortably with the modern capitalist and judicial state.
The Breadwinner shares true untold stories of impoverished Sri Lankan women who have been exploited. This unique book includes the experiences gathered from over 200 struggling women, through focus groups, surveys, and in-depth interviews. Women showcased in this book either spent years working as housemaids in the Middle East or were preparing to leave their families for such employment.
Some housemaids employed in the Middle East have returned home with no complaints. But, for the women who were subjected to abysmal, inhumane working conditions, sexual violence, and human rights abuses, their experience represents an ever-continuing personal nightmare for every one of these women. Their grievances were never heard and they never received any kind of justice. The mistreatment of female migrant workers happens both in the workplace, and in the prisons as the housemaid industry in the Middle East is not regulated, and domestic workers are not protected under labor law, or any other laws.
Most of these migrant mothers are uneducated and unskilled, and have never worked a day in their life as a housemaid. They don't know a word of the language they will be speaking in the new country of employment. They have never saved money, or know anything about managing their finances. They are mostly warm and caring, and knee-deep in financial debt. They have simple but real aspirations for their children, ones that were never theirs; like a good education, a successful future, not having debts, a happy marriage, and a nice roof over their head. However, when the financially-strapped Sri Lankan mother leaves the family for sometimes just two years, there is a huge negative impact on the family as children must live without their mothers. When she returns, things are much worse than when she left. Often, she re-migrates, this time to escape her family issues.
As a voice for these abused migrant women, author Sriyani Tidball is providing a window into the lives of the Sri Lankan women whose elected politicians chose to increase the economy of the country by selling its poverty-stricken mothers to work in the Middle East as housemaids. The stories in this book illustrate why so many migrant workers return to Sri Lanka deeply hurt and traumatized by the unscrupulous behavior of private employers, employment agents, the Middle Eastern authorities, and Sharia court judges. They carry on without respect for basic human rights law or the inherent dignity of women, especially housemaids, irrespective of race or religion. Some women interviewed were still traumatized from the rape and sexual abuse they received at the hands of their male employers. They could not share their stories with the author without breaking down with deep hurt, trauma, anger, and tears. The criminal justice system in the Middle East, especially Saudi Arabia, is deeply flawed when it comes to justice for non-residents, especially migrant housemaids. Some were executed following unfair Sharia trials that lacked any form of transparency. Their still-grieving families have had a tough time with closure due to the lack of information provided to them. Secondary trauma infests most of these families. If these unskilled, uneducated women returned intact, they often carried with them painful memories of harassment and abuse, including tales of abortion, forced prostitution, trafficking, torture, rape, arrests, deportation, and murder.

Описание:
In a global economy, multinational companies often operate in jurisdictions where governments are either unable or unwilling to uphold even the basic human rights of their citizens. The expectation that companies respect human rights in their own operations and in their business relationships is now a business reality that corporations need to respond to.
Business and Human Rights: From Principles to Practice is the first comprehensive and interdisciplinary textbook that addresses these issues. It examines the regulatory framework that grounds the business and human rights debate and highlights the business and legal challenges faced by companies and stakeholders in improving respect for human rights, exploring such topics as:
the regulatory framework that grounds the business and human rights debate
challenges faced by companies and stakeholders in improving human rights
industry-specific human rights standards
current mechanisms to hold corporations to account
future challenges for business and human rights
With supporting case studies throughout, this text provides an overview of current themes in the field and guidance on practical implementation, demonstrating that a thorough understanding of the human rights challenges faced by business is now vital in any business context.
