Amid the proliferating scholarship and often sensational public campaigns, Trafficking Harms offers fresh insights and critical analyses. The collection's four thematic areas - Discourses and Representations; Law and Prosecutions; Policing and Surveillance; Migrant Labour Exploitation - examine an array of issues, including the contested definitions of human trafficking, the application of trafficking law and policy, the conflation of sex work and trafficking, the impacts of anti-trafficking frameworks on racialized communities, questions around "victims" and "traffickers" and much more. Showcasing a mix of scholarly research, public advocacy and first-person narratives, this book is the first of its kind in Canada. The authors include a diverse group of academics, legal advocates, frontline activists who work with migrant and sex-working communities, individuals who have been charged and/or convicted of trafficking offences and those who are directly impacted by trafficking law and policing, such as domestic and migrant sex workers.

Industry Reviews

While critiques of anti-trafficking have circulated for several decades, this collection shines a much-needed spotlight on Canada and brings together work of leading scholars in the field. Based on empirical research with, especially, sex workers, migrant workers, and Black, Indigenous, and racialized communities, it presents powerful details about the harms these populations experience due to anti-trafficking interventions and representations. It is a timely and persuasive collection - a must-read for any student, researcher or activist concerned with social justice.--Kamala Kempadoo, Professor Emerita, York University. Co-editor of White Supremacy, Racism and the Coloniality of Anti-Trafficking Trafficking Harms provides a long-overdue critical assessment of Canada's dominant anti-trafficking approaches. What makes the volume particularly valuable is that it features stories of people with first-hand experience of anti-trafficking responses. The book should be read not only by academics and practitioners but also by decision-makers who are in a position to reduce the harms of anti-trafficking policies and practices in Canada.--Borislav Gerasimov, Editor, Anti-Trafficking Review
