Sex Trafficking and the Media (eBook, ePUB)

Perspectives from Thailand and the United States

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores how sex trafficking has been reported in the media. It focuses on Thailand and the United States, showing how there are great similarities between the two countries in the way the issue is misrepresented. The book discusses sex trafficking as a human rights abuse, explores how the reporting of the phenomenon is framed by law enforcement agencies, rather than by the victims, and explains why journalists have a difficult relationship with both victims and law enforcers. The book highlights the often disparaging portrayal of victims, and puts forward suggestions as to how a fuller and more accurate picture of sex trafficking might be achieved.
