▼ The researcher investigated the existence, prevalence and causes of trafficking for sexual exploitation in Namibia, as well as its impact and effects on both its victims and society as a whole. Due to the complexity and dangerous nature of her topic of study, she utilised a unique method in which she identifies and capacitates specific members of the study's target group to lead her into areas which would otherwise be too difficult for her to reach and involving them in data collection; For validity and authenticity purposes, the research was both quantitative and qualitative in nature. It combined different social research data collection techniques by administering standardized validated questionnaires to 230 respondents during in-person interviews as well as carrying out systematic field observations in key areas in 18 out of the 35 of the country's regional metropolises and border posts from where it collected information provided by 6 Focus Group Discussion Meetings (FGDMs) and 32 key informants. This was complemented by compilation of 18 case studies representing real life stories of possible victims of human trafficking; The study was able to establish that while sex trafficking as a social phenomenon exists in the country, there was little public awareness about it. Whereas the phenomenon was found fairly new, it was also found growing fast mainly among women, young adolescents and children living in specially difficult circumstances such as unemployed school drop-outs and orphaned youths mainly due to deep-rooted social, economic and gender inequalities. Its consequences included physical, health and moral hazards such as diseases that included sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV/AIDS, gender-based violence and abandonment and homelessness. Finally, the study makes some recommendations for policy and legislative prevention and protection measures, as well as practical service delivery interventions particularly in terms of public awareness building in order to reduce social, economic and gender inequality that serve to promote the problem.

M.A. (Philosophy)

Whether or not prostitution can be considered a legitimate form of employment contract is an issue that is much debated. In conjunction with this there is much debate as to what rights and protection the women working within the prostitution industry should be afforded, if any. This thesis analyses in some depth three influential theories relating to prostitution, namely a contractarian defence of the decriminalisation of prostitution (Lars Ericsson), a critique of prostitution viewed as contract (Carole Pateman) and a defence of decriminalising a reformed prostitution industry in the name of women’s autonomy (Drucilla Cornell). Drawing on the strengths of each of these theories, I will build a specifically feminist theoretical position in support of the claim that decriminalising a reformed prostitution industry and considering prostitution as a legitimate form of work, is the morally best stance to adopt regarding the industry. It is argued that the decriminalising of prostitution will not only benefit prostitutes in terms of decreasing the amount of abuse and violence they face but it will also aid in ensuring that they are afforded the same rights and protection as the rest of society. This transformation will also impact favourably on the sexual status and autonomy of women more generally. According to the contractarian defence of prostitution provided by Ericsson (1980:353), the prostitution contract should be considered a form of employment contract just like other forms of employment contract. This viewpoint further asserts that the most fundamental problem with prostitution is not prostitution itself but rather the hostile and punitive attitudes that are held towards prostitution and prostitutes (343). Pateman (2006: 50), on the other hand, asserts that prostitution contracts are integral to patriarchal capitalism in that they help ensure that all men have some access to women’s sexuality, by turning it into a commodity. The prostitution contract thus plays an important role in subordinating women to the control of men and these women in essence become the property of men for the duration of the contract (66). Whilst Ericsson sees the prostitution contract as one that could aid in the liberation of women’s sexuality and the overcoming of male oppression, Pateman sees it as one of the most fundamental forms of male domination and the subjugation of women. Lastly, Cornell (2006: 116) looks at prostitution from the perspective of sexual agency and autonomy. She argues that prostitution can be a means through which women express their sexuality and so should be a decision that is respected. Cornell (1998: 50) further argues that prostitutes should be respected as women with the capacity to make decisions for themselves, especially with regards to how they live out their sexual lives. Therefore, Cornell (50) asserts that prostitution should be decriminalised and reformed so as to ensure that women working as prostitutes are afforded basic human rights and have the possibility of developing…

▼ It is widely understood that street-based sex workers are vulnerable to experiencing violence in their work. The Prostitution Reform Act (PRA) was passed in New Zealand in 2003, decriminalising sex work with the intention of supporting the health, safety, and human rights of sex workers. This thesis explores strategies to manage risks of violence amongst women working on the streets in New Zealand, considering how the law change has impacted on the management of these risks, and whether further change is required to better support the safety of street-based sex workers. Drawing from the perspectives of women working on the streets, this thesis challenges portrayals of street-based sex workers as passive recipients of violence. The experiences and perceptions of these women highlight the diverse violencerelated risks they managed from a range of potential perpetrators, including passersby, individuals approaching as clients, other sex workers, and minders. The shift to decriminalisation has not eliminated violence. However, the findings suggest that the law change has provided a framework that better supports existing risk management strategies. For instance, in removing the possibility of arrest for soliciting, the PRA has provided an environment in which these women have sufficient time to screen potential clients on the street. Moreover, the perceptions of these women suggest that the law change has to some extent improved the relationship between police and street-based sex workers. Nevertheless, whilst decriminalisation has created an environment more conducive to sex worker safety, it is clear that challenges remain in addressing violence against sex workers. Since the sex industry does not operate in social and political isolation, moral discourses continue to stigmatise and threaten the wellbeing of street-based sex workers. The overall conclusion of this thesis is that whilst decriminalisation was an important first step, moving forward to proactively challenge violence against street-based sex workers requires a paradigm shift away from discourses that support violence, to a more positive acceptance of street-based sex work in New Zealand society.

▼ SAMMANFATTNING Turismen är den största folkvandringen i modern tid. Under år 2008 reste 922 miljoner turister, denna siffra beräknas stiga till 1,6 miljarder år 2020. I många år har turismindustrin blivit utmanad av media och myndigheter att ge ett snabbt socialt ansvar, till följd av öppna gränser och arbetskraftens migration. Två speciellt besvärliga fenomen är, människohandel och barnsexturism. Denna problematik är vanlig i Thailand, ett land med rykte om att vara en sexdestination. Thailand är idag en stor turistdestination med ungefär 14 500 000 miljoner turister varje år. Många svenskar reser till Thailand för; sol, bad och affärer. Under perioden år 1965-1975, präglades många människors liv av Vietnamkriget. Många soldaters rekreationsresor förlades till Thailand. Barnsexturismen växte upp som en organiserad handel med barer och bordeller, inrett speciellt för soldaterna. Efter kriget växte en ny infrastruktur upp, sexturism. Thailand blev känt för att vara en internationell barnsexturism destination. Hur många barn som är utsatta av sexindustrin är svårt att avgöra, då ingen vet. En del påstår att summan av alla barn omfattar över 3 miljoner. Dessa uppgifter kommer från Frankrike år 2005. På grund av ökad globalisering av ekonomi, media och tillströmning av konsumentvaror har den thailändska materialismen och konsumtionen ökat blad de thailändska familjerna. Detta har bidragit till att befolkningen har sett möjligheter att se familjens döttrar som en snabb och bekväm metod till att tjäna pengar och för att kunna få möjligheten att köpa konsumentvaror. Turismindustrin kan också utnyttja de traditionella etniska livsstilar som lokalbefolkningen kan inneha. Ett resultat av detta innebär att kvinnor kan uppleva sig själva som en kulturell handelsvara, samt en del av markandsföringen och av den turistprodukt de blir. Barnen vänder sig till prostitution för rädsla av fattigdom. Barnsexturism förekommer både i industrialiserade länder samt utvecklingsländer, det är ett globalt problem. Ju mer vi reser, ju bredare och djupare blir problemet och det slutar inte att växa. En organisation som arbetar med att motverka barnsexturism är, ECPAT – End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Trafficking in Children for Sexual Purposes. Från att varit en liten organisation har verksamheten växt och utvecklats. Nu finns den representerad i 122 länder, Sverige är ett utav dessa länder. Sveriges stora researrangörer samarbetar med organisationen. Researrangörerna har skrivit på uppförandekoderna. Detta är ett sätt att arbeta för att motverka barnsexturism på destinationerna och hemma i Sverige. Uppsatsens teori utgår från problematiken bakom barnsexturismens ursprung, för att sedan följa utvecklingen fram i tiden. Författaren önskar ta reda på om resenärer har kännedom av vad organisationen ECPAT arbetar med. Om resenärerna har vetskap om researrangörers samarbete med ECPAT. Hur arbetar…

Uvod:Prostitucija je iznajmljivanje, za novac ili neku drugu korist, svoga tela drugim licima da na njemu zadovoljavaju polni nagon. Prostitucija je još uvek najneobradjenija tema sa psihopatološkog aspekta, a o psihološkim uzrocima postojanja prostitucije se do skoro, uglavnom, posredno zaključivalo. Ciljevi: Istraživanje je imalo dva cilja. Prvi se odnosio na utvrdjivanje zrelosti psiholoških mehanizama odbrane kod žena koje se bave prostitucijom. Drugi cilj je bio utvrdjivanje prisustva/odsustva psihopatologije kod žena koje se bave prostitucijom, prema mernim kvalitetima Ajzenkovog upitnika. Metod: U istraživanju je ispitana grupa od 50 žena koje se bave prostitucijom u Srbiji. Sve ispitanice su pripadale starosnom okviru od 18 do 40 godina. Sve su bile bez psihijatrijskih obolenja, teških somatskih i neuroloških obolenja i mentalne retardacije i najmanje su, u momentu ispitivanja, pet godina boravile u Beogradu. Grupa je formirana i ispitivana u prostorijama “Gradskog Sekretarijata Unutrašnjih Poslova” grada Beograda, a nakon obavljanja racija, tj.zakonom regulisanih akcija privodjenja prostitutki od strane pripadnika službe javnog reda i mira grada Beograda. U istraživanju su korišćeni semikvantitativniintervju, standardni psihijatrijski intervju, a zatim upitnici samoprocene koji su uključivali sledeće instrumente: DSQ- Defence Style Questionnaire (Bondov upitnik procene odbrambenih stilova) i EPQ – Eysenck’s Personality Questionnaire (Ajzenkov test ličnosti).U delu istraživanja u kome se procenjivala zrelost odbrambenih stilova ispitanica, u okviru svakog od stilova koji reprezentuje odredjeni nivo zrelosti je grupa žena koje se bave prostitucijom komparirana sa četiri grupe subjekata različitih kategorija mentalnog zdravlja (DSQstandardni skorovi merenja mentalnog zdravlja). Za statističku obradu podataka korišćen je program Statistical Package for Social Sciencies (SPSS/PC). U analizi podataka korišćene su odgovarajuće parametarske i neparametarske metode inferencijalne statistike. T-testom je iznadjena značajnost razlike dobijenih skorova uzorka ispitanica u odnosu na standardizovane vrednosti skorova...

▼ Despite its long pre-existence, the issue of human trafficking (especially for sexual purposes) has become the epicentre of attention since the closing of the past century. The globe-wide attempt of politicians, academics, practitioners, technocrats, activists, and journalists to define, advocate, measure, and ‘control’ people trafficking has brought to the fore particular (re)actions. One such example is the EU and international law that aim to facilitate the legal framework within which national administrations should embark upon to ‘better deal’ with human trafficking. While EU and international law can only go so far as to lay the theoretical basis that signatory states must follow for dealing with human trafficking, ultimately, planning and implementing public policy become the prerogative of the individual state. In light of this, the central contribution of this study is the exploration of the application of EU and international law in concern with human trafficking within the Cypriot context. In other words, how EU and international law on human trafficking are applied in day-to-day interactions between state employees, civil groups, and trafficked women. For this purpose, the study examines the interpretation and application of the local legislation by the criminal justice agencies as well as the local NGOs. Notably, such undertakings are informed by past and present geopolitical and socio-economic developments that have been taking place since the British colonisation of Cyprus. Research findings (based on ethnographic fieldwork and documentary study), demonstrate that EU’s attempt to enforce legislative cohesion, common policies, and harmonised practices over the issue of human trafficking across its Member States is yet to materialise. The case of Cyprus, and at times of other EU States, are used as a paradigm in which both, the EU acquis and international law fail to impose legal prescriptions on national authorities. To illustrate, the dimensions of prevention, detection, identification, prosecution, and adjudication of human trafficking, as well as trafficking victims’ protection, rehabilitation, and repatriation are explored in piecemeal and they all testify of systemic deviations from EU and international guidelines. Both Cypriot public services and local NGOs assigned to handle human trafficking are not in a position to bear the standards laid out by the EU and the CoE. Consequently, victims of trafficking are often predisposed to adverse conditions and as a result, they are often undertreated. Moreover, it is often the case that law on paper—both EU and Cypriot— and law in practice are diametrically different.

▼ Drawing on qualitative and quantitative evidence from the commercial sex market in Singapore, this thesis examines how this important but poorly understand market functions and how the agents who participate in it behave. The first chapter analyzes this industry from an institutional perspective. I explore a set of endogenous and exogenous reasons for why both legal and illegal prostitution exists in the red light district and yet functions differently. In addition, I examine why street prostitution and prostitution in the bars are both illegal but very different in organization. These apparently distinct questions are answered by common factors. The distribution of power among pimps in these segments and the laws governing prostitution emerge as the key causes, capable of explaining the contractual differences, labor mobility, network structure, and profit allocation rules across the segments. The second chapter examines and contrasts competing theories developed by Becker (1957) and Diamond (1971). My empirical findings fail to support Becker's prediction that discrimination can not survive in a competitive equilibrium. Instead, they favor Diamond's model in which discrimination can persist in a competitive equilibrium when there is even a modest search cost. Moreover, sex workers engage in statistical discrimination based on their perception of clients' willingness to pay and practice taste-based discrimination based on clients' traits like skin tone. The third chapter is a case study on how information completeness affects bargaining efficiency using bargaining data between sex workers and clients in the commercial sex market. I find bargaining efficiency is greatly enhanced as uncertainty diminishes. When comparing the transactions of repeat clients with those of tourists, I find that for the repeat clients, their offers are 25% more likely to be accepted immediately, the bargaining process is concluded 1 minute faster and the transaction is 17% less likely to fail. These changes in efficiency are independent of the venue where bargaining takes place. In addition, sellers are more proactive in approaching buyers and initiating offers. Identity of initiator does not influence the bargaining duration. However, when the sex worker initiates the transaction, there is a reduction in bargaining failures.

▼ La présente étude porte sur l’expérience pénale de jeunes femmes ayant porté plainte ou témoigné contre un proxénète. En effectuant notre recherche, notre intention était de comprendre le vécu de ces jeunes femmes lors de leur relation avec le proxénète ainsi que de mieux saisir leurs motivations et attentes en recourant au système pénal. Nous avions également pour objectif de cerner les effets de leur expérience judiciaire sur leur vie en général. Afin de recueillir le point de vue des jeunes femmes et de rendre compte du sens qu’elles donnent à leur expérience au sein du processus pénal, nous avons effectué dix entretiens à tendance non-directive avec des jeunes femmes ayant fait cette expérience. L’analyse montre, dans un premier temps, qu’une fragilité émotionnelle conjuguée à une situation financière précaire constituent un facteur de risque de tomber sous l’emprise d’un proxénète. Malgré la présence d’une vulnérabilité les prédisposant à s’investir dans une relation d’abus, une majorité de jeunes femmes démontrent une ouverture face au monde prostitutionnel avant de faire la connaissance d’un proxénète. L’entrée dans le domaine de la prostitution ne peut donc être uniquement attribuable à l’influence d’un proxénète et constitue plutôt le corollaire d’un amalgame de facteurs. Au début de la relation, la manipulation du proxénète vise essentiellement à renforcer un intérêt à se prostituer déjà présent chez plusieurs jeunes femmes. Dans le cas de celles qui n’ont jamais envisagé de s’adonner à des activités de prostitution, c’est une dépendance affective préexistante qui les amènera à se laisser convaincre de s’engager dans cette avenue. Que la nature de la relation avec le proxénète soit professionnelle ou amoureuse, toutes les jeunes femmes que nous avons rencontrées sont rapidement confrontées à des stratégies de manipulation et font les frais de manifestations de violence visant à les assujettir. L’amorce d’une prise de conscience de la situation d’abus qui leur est imposée constitue l’élément-clé qui les amène à prendre la décision de quitter leur proxénète et à accepter de coopérer avec les policiers. Celles qui entretiennent une relation de travail avec le proxénète amorceront cette réflexion avant celles en relation de couple. Ce constat s’explique par l’amour que celles qui se considèrent en relation de couple ressentent à l’égard du proxénète qui, non seulement les rend plus vulnérables à sa manipulation, mais freine également toute tentative d’autonomisation face à lui. Le recours à l’aide des policiers ne va pas de soi pour toutes les jeunes femmes sous le joug d’un proxénète. Bien que l’influence d’une personne bienveillante joue souvent un rôle significatif sur leur décision de porter plainte, le choix de collaborer avec les intervenants judiciaires découle essentiellement de leur propre réflexion psychologique vis-à-vis de leur situation. En portant plainte, elles souhaitent généralement être délivrées de l’emprise du proxénète et être protégées par le système pénal afin d’avoir le temps… Advisors/Committee Members: Jaccoud, Mylène (advisor), Gaudreault, Arlène (advisor).
