- Description
- This collection argues against the idea that trafficking and prostitution are synonymous and leading to international crimes and presents alternatives for understanding transnational migrations, forced labor, sex work and livelihood strategies. The authors describe violations of the rights of freedom of movement, decent employment and social and economic security of migrants. They analyse anti-trafficking interventions, including the War on Trafficking, and the position of undocumented migrants, tribal and aboriginal people, poor women, men and children, and sex workers.

- Description
- This volume critically reflects on the past fifteen years of international efforts aimed at improving health, alleviating poverty, diminishing gender inequality, and promoting human rights. It includes essays by leading scholars and practitioners that are centered on the 1994 United Nations International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) and its resulting Programme of Action. More than a decade later there is growing concern about its effectiveness. .The book grapples with fundamental questions about the relationships among population, fertility decline, reproductive health, human rights, poverty alleviation, and development and assesses the various arguments—demographic, public health, human rights-based, and economic—for and against ICPD today. .A number of the chapters address institutional challenges to ICPD and consider how the changing political, religious, academic, and disciplinary contexts matter. Other chapters engage operational and conceptual issues and whether ICPD has been able to move the reproductive health agenda forward on topics such as maternal mortality, abortion, HIV/AIDS, adolescents, reproductive technologies, and demography. Finally, several chapters examine how ICPD has been sidelined by emerging health and development agendas and what could be done in response.
