  • Human Trafficking: Preventing, Protecting, Prosecuting
    HUMAN TRAFFICKING PREVENTING PROTECTING PROSECUTING United Methodist Women’s Work to End Human Trafficking by Susie Johnson, executive for public policy and leader of the Human Trafficking Initiative, United Methodist Women United Methodist Women is resolute in its stance against the exploitation of those who are forced to submit to civil to meet their basic needs or as a result of their position in society. The organization has been active in fighting human Trafficking for more than a decade. More than 20 million people internationally have fallen victim to human Trafficking, and the epidemic has become the second largest criminal activity behind the sale of illicit drugs. As advocates for social justice, United Methodist Women will continue to work towards ending cruel trade and fight for the rights of those exploited by it. In 1998, Dr. Laura Lederer initiated America’s first systematic examination of global sex Trafficking, labor Trafficking and labor bondage when she began The Protection Project at Harvard University. United Methodist Women has been closely involved with the project from the beginning, seeding its formation with a grant. In 2000, the project moved to Washington, D.C., and worked closely with the United Methodist Women Washington Office of Public Policy to heighten attention and national advocacy on the issue. Dr. Lederer later joined the U.S. Department of State to monitor and report on Trafficking in persons and build anti-Trafficking legislation. Human Trafficking preys on the vulnerable and voiceless. For this reason, United Methodist Women has continuously fought to raise awareness of this modern-day slavery and give its survivors a voice.

CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING AND NEO- ABOLITIONISM: TEARING DOWN THE HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN ELIZABETH M. DONOVAN* ABSTRACT Catholic Social Teaching (“CST”) is the body of literature written in the modern era by papal and episcopal teachers in response to current political, economic, and social issues. CST views individuals in the sex trade as victims, however they arrived in the trade. Prostitution abolitionists, called neo-abolitionists, because their current efforts to wipe out sex trafficking and prostitution mirror similar efforts by reformers in the early twentieth century, also view individuals in the sex trade as victims. A coalition of feminists and Christians developed neo-abolitionist social policy during the late twentieth and early twenty-first century.

  • Resistance to Violent Pornography: the Question of Feminist Praxis
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 311 482 CS 506 733 AUTHOR Byerly, Carolyn M. TITLE Resistance to Violent Pornography: The Question of Feminist Praxis. PUB DATE Aug 89 NOTE 49p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mzes Communication (72nd, Washington, DC, August 10-13, 1989). Figures may not reproduce clearly. PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Advertising; *Feminism; Marketing; *Mass Media Effects; *Pornography; *Sex Discrimination; Sex Fairness; Sex Stereotypes; Violence IDENTIFIERS Consumer Organizations; Power Struggles; Sex Offenders ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the organized feminist resistance, during the 1970s, to the availability of both soft and hard-core pornography in mainstream films, magazines, and advertisements. A research review supports the contention that the power struggle between men and women as defined by the pornography issue merely reflects a deeper, generally-accepted gender inequality which tends to leave women out of the shaping of corporate and legal policies. The use of consumer boycott by a group of feminists in the late 1970s is discussed in depth in order to provide support for the conclusion that feminists can define a more active role for themselves in determining corporate media policy regarding the portrayal of women. Forty-three references and 12 figures (illustrations) are attached. (NH) *********************************************************************** * Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best

  • Addressing Demand: Why and How Policymakers Should Utilize Law and Law Enforcement to Target Customers of Commercial Sexual Exploitation
    ADDRESSING DEMAND: WHY AND HOW POLICYMAKERS SHOULD UTILIZE LAW AND LAW ENFORCEMENT TO TARGET CUSTOMERS OF COMMERCIAL SEXUAL EXPLOITATION Laura J. Lederer INTRODUCTION† Human trafficking affects virtually every country, including the United States.1 Since the passage of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 20002 in the United States as well as the U.N. Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons,3 many have worked to address this problem of modern-day slavery, from statesmen and stateswomen to world relief organizations and grassroots organizations. Even so, these crimes continue. Some estimate there are as many as twenty-seven million people trapped in some form of slavery worldwide.4 Many of the slaves are women and children—bought, sold, and traded day after day for sexual exploitation.5 In human trafficking, as in drug trafficking, there is a triangle of activity consisting of supply, demand, Dr. Laura J. Lederer received her B.A. magna cum laude in comparative religions from the University of Michigan. After a decade of philanthropic work, she obtained her J.D. from DePaul College of Law in 1994. In 1997, she founded The Protection Project at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government. She has also held numerous high-ranking federal government positions dedicated to the abolition of the modern-day slave trade, serving as Senior Director of Global Projects on Trafficking in Persons in the Office To Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons at the U.S. Department of State and as Executive Director of the Senior Policy Operating Group on Trafficking in Persons.

HUGHES* This paper is dedicated to Norma Hotaling (1951–2008). INTRODUCTION Contemporary human trafficking includes forced labor, slavery, and sex trafficking. The global sex trafficking of women and girls is organized and “industrialized.” Operating within and across national borders, it is comprised of legal and illegal business establishments engaging in a range of sexually exploitative activities, from generally legal acts, such as strip- ping and producing pornography, to generally illegal acts, such as produc- ing child pornography, distributing obscene materials, and prostitution. Some of these activities, such as prostitution and lap dancing, are legal or unregulated in some counties and states in the United States or in countries around the world. * Donna M. Hughes is a Professor and holds the Eleanor M. and Oscar M. Carlson En- dowed Chair in Women’s Studies at the University of Rhode Island. She teaches advanced under- graduate and graduate courses on human trafficking, international issues, and human rights. She is a leading international researcher on trafficking of women and children. She has com- pleted research on the trafficking of women and girls for prostitution in the United States, Russia, Ukraine, and Korea. She was a research consultant to the Council of Europe on the use of new information technologies in the trafficking in women and children for sexual exploitation. Her recent scholarship has focused on the “demand side” of sex trafficking. She has worked with prodemocracy activists to collect information on trafficking and prosti- tution of women in Iran.
