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 UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=217484 ER -
