Inhaltsangabe

While often discussed together, prostitution and human trafficking represent distinct yet overlapping issues that demand careful legal definition and better psychological understanding. Legal systems around the world struggle to balance criminal justice and the protection of vulnerable populations, while psychological research reveals the profound impacts of coercion, stigma, and trauma on those involved. Examining prostitution and human trafficking through both legal and psychological lenses allows for a better understanding of consent, exploitation, and victimization. Legal and Psychological Perspectives on Prostitution and Human Trafficking explores the complex entanglements between legal structures and psychological impacts in relation to sexual labor and exploitation. It examines the representation and lived realities of sex work and human trafficking. Covering topics such as human trafficking, psychology, and law, this book is an excellent resource for policymakers, researchers, psychologists, government officials, government organizations, law professionals, academicians, and graduate students.
