Now available: Flesh and Money: Trafficking in Human Beings P.C. van Duyne, J. Spencer.
ISBN: 978-90-5850-655-9

Cross-border mobility of people in Europe continues to worry the authorities, particularly when this leads to illegality and the exploitation of people, whether in the sex service, construction industry or agriculture. Much of the mobility concerns human trafficking, often women smuggled over the borders for exploitation in the sex industry. However, not all sex workers are dragged into the sex service industry against their will. Even if it is only an economic option of last resort, for many women it is a real (temporary) job for which they are prepared to be smuggled under dangerous condition. This can even imply being smuggled by Bedouins on a camel through the desert into Israel. Other girls get in the grip of Bulgarian organised crime syndicates which stretch their control over their European sex lines from the streets in Sofia to top brothels for elite prostitutes in Berlin and London.

This volume contains the reports and studies of expert European researchers in the field of human trafficking. It covers a decade of trafficking and law enforcement in which the effects of globalisation are still being felt by those who are forced into debasing working conditions or roam around in the European continent looking for a better existence?

The Cross-Border Crime Colloquium is an annual event since 1999. It brings together experts on international organised (economic) crime to discuss the latest developments in empirical research, legislation and law enforcement, with a special geographical focus on Western, Central, and Eastern Europe. The Colloquia aim at building bridges in three respects: between East and West Europe, between scholars and practitioners, and between old and young.
