Professor Jennifer Suchland’s essay, “The Missing “P” in U.S. Anti-Trafficking Law” was recently featured on The Feminist Wire. Suchland’s essay reveals how current reponses to sex trafficking concentrates efforts on carceral solutions, rather than on preventative measures which would more adequately address sex-trafficking issues and the lives they affect at the root.
Professor Suchland’s book, Economies of Violence: Transnational Feminism, Postsocialism, and the Politics of Sex Trafficking (Duke University Press, 2015) presents a genealogy of global human trafficking discourse in and through the end of the Cold War.
