Rethinking trafficking in women : politics out of security

Aradau, Claudia

Rethinking trafficking in women : politics out of security / Claudia Aradau. - Hampshire : Palgrave Macmillan , 2015. - vii, 225 p. ; 24 cm

What should be done about trafficking in women? Aradau shows that the problematization of trafficking as a security issue limits what can be done. Exploring the complex relationship between security, politics and subjectivity, and suggests new forms of action which transcend security practices.
This book challenges conventional approaches to human trafficking by arguing that trafficking in women has been framed primarily as a security issue. Aradau contends that this security-focused perspective can limit possibilities for equality, freedom, and political action. Drawing on political theory, gender studies, and international relations, the book explores alternative ways of understanding and addressing trafficking beyond the framework of security.
