Asis -- Human trafficking in Latin America in the context of international migration / Gabriela Rodríguez Pizarro -- Human trafficking in South Asia: a focus on Nepal / Renu Rajbhandari -- Trafficking in persons in the South Caucasus--Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia: new challenges for transitional democracies / Gulnara Shahinian.
Brings social, economic and political elements to the policy discussion as well as strategic interventions regarding the fight against "trafficking" (the recruitment and transportation of human beings through deception and coercion for the purposes of exploitation). Trafficking, generally, occurs from poorer to more prosperous countries and regions; however, it is not necessarily the poorest regions or communities which are most vulnerable to trafficking, and so this volume seeks to identify the factors which explain where and why vulnerability increases.--Publisher's description
