Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book critically explores Canada's responses to human trafficking, challenging the division between international and domestic perspectives. Julie Kaye highlights how anti-trafficking policies often mirror and support settler-colonial nation-building, inadvertently causing harm to those they aim to protect, especially migrant and Indigenous women. Drawing on post- and settler-colonial theories and Indigenous feminist thought, Kaye's analysis is informed by fifty-six interviews with professionals in counter-trafficking roles across Western Canada, offering a nuanced understanding of this pressing issue.
