The issue of human trafficking has become particularly important given the charged environment regarding border politics. The book details the various policy options that have been proposed, supported, opposed, or passed by U.S. politicians over the past five to ten years. This includes decisions made by presidents, legislators (national and state), agencies, and interest groups. Court decisions on human trafficking policies and media coverage of events are also explored.
This political analysis is designed to help readers understand what motivated the proposals designed to address human trafficking, and the impact those policies had or are having. This book is ideal as a primary text for college courses in human trafficking and modern slavery or a supplemental text for a range of scholarly courses of study, including human rights, criminal justice, law, and political science. It is recommended for anyone with an interest in human trafficking and what might be done to stop it.
