Description
Throughout the world, vulnerable people are being deceived into entering abusive journeys. Whether in the organ trade, exploitative labour businesses or forced criminality, their lives will never be the same.
This book traces the journey of victims/survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking into and within the UK, from recruitment to representation to (re)integration. Using global comparative case studies, it discusses recruitment tactics and demand, prevention in supply chains, issues with effective legal protection and care services and vulnerability to re-trafficking. It also examines the ideological misrepresentation of vulnerable migrants and victims/survivors in media, the film industry, legislation and more.
Rooted in diverse practitioner experience, disciplines and empirical research, this book bridges the experience-research-practice-policy gap by bringing to the fore survivors' voices. In doing so, it offers crucial suggestions for better public awareness, policies and practices that will impact interventions in the UK and beyond.

Reviews / Votes
"This collection does the important work of foregrounding the different ways in which lived experiences of trauma and violence have been - and should be - incorporated into responses to extreme exploitation." Joel Quirk, University of the Witwatersrand "Striving to centre the perspectives of victims, this valuable book includes both scholars and practitioners examining the recruitment, experiences and aftercare of human trafficking survivors on a variety of topics." Sarah Hupp Williamson, University of West GeorgiaMore details
