Sex trafficking operates as a business, where women are treated as commodities within a global market for sex. Traffickers profit from a supply of vulnerable women, international demand for sex slavery, and a viable means of transporting victims. Globalization and the expansion of free market capitalism have increased these factors, leading to a dramatic increase in sex trafficking. Globalization has also brought new dimensions to the fight against sex trafficking.

  • Brève Histoire De La Pros Tu On
    Fiche théma+que du Brève histoire CRIDES de la pros0tuon janvier 2004 préparé par Carole Wahnoun COURTISANE ET SON CLIENT, PÉLIKÉ ATTIQUE À FIGURES ROUGES DE POLYGNOTE, V. 430 AV. J.-C., MUSÉE NATIONAL ARCHÉOLOGIQUE D'ATHÈNES 1 LES DÉBUTS : L'HOSPITALITÉ SEXUELLE ET LA PROSTITUTION SACRÉE Il n'est pas certain que la prostitution soit "le plus vieux métier du monde" ; durant la colonisation, les Européens la feront admettre. Il existait toutefois, dans certaines sociétés primitives européennes, une prostitution liée à la notion d'hospitalité : les différentes femmes de la maison sont offertes aux hô- tes de passage. Cette coutume existait en Chaldée, en Inde, en Egypte et dans tout l'Orient. Parfois même, l'hospitalité sexuelle implique un aspect religieux que les prêtres de certaines divinités organi- sent et dont ils bénéficient. Les prostituées sacrées n'étaient pas toutes considérées de la même fa- çon et certaines spécialisaient leurs tâches en fonction de ce qui était décidé chez les grands prê- tres. Pourtant la prostitution s'est bientôt réduite à un rituel sexuel prenant son vrai visage durant les Saturnales et autres orgies à caractère religieux. Aussi, bien que le rite demeure, la prostitution de- vient un phénomène social et commence à se désacraliser. En plus de la prostitution sacrée, les grandes courtisanes existèrent en Orient, non seulement en Inde, mais aussi en Birmanie et en Corée et surtout au Japon. En Chine si, au départ, les prostituées ressemblaient aux hétaïres grecques, la prostitution s'y organise très vite commercialement. Chez les Hébreux et les Musulmans, elle fut toujours considérée avec répulsion et n'était pratiquée que par les étrangères ou les esclaves.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Janet Beizer Jessica Leigh Tanner Mapping Prostitution: Sex, Space, Taxonomy in the Fin-de-siècle French Novel Abstract This dissertation examines representations of prostitution in male-authored French novels from the later nineteenth century. It proposes that prostitution has a map, and that realist and naturalist authors appropriate this cartography in the Second Empire and early Third Republic to make sense of a shifting and overhauled Paris perceived to resist mimetic literary inscription. Though always significant in realist and naturalist narrative, space is uniquely complicit in the novel of prostitution due to the contemporary policy of reglementarism, whose primary instrument was the mise en carte: an official registration that subjected prostitutes to moral and hygienic surveillance, but also “put them on the map,” classifying them according to their space of practice (such as the brothel or the boulevard).
