Nichols introduces readers to the theoretical and political perspectives that shape research and policy on sex trafficking, considering abolitionist, neoliberal, feminist, criminological, and sociological viewpoints. She assesses the outcomes of policies relating to commercial sex and analyzes a variety of responses to sex trafficking, including in social services, health care, and the criminal legal system, as well as activism. Nichols reflects on how service providers, activists, and everyday people can effectively advocate for and with survivors of sex trafficking and offers recommendations for practice and policy.
Sex Trafficking in the United States is essential for understanding the dynamics of sex trafficking and its underlying sources. This second edition is thoroughly revised and updated, integrating the most up-to-date research.
Andrea J. Nichols is professor of sociology at St. Louis Community College at Forest Park and lecturer in women, gender, and sexuality studies at Washington University in St. Louis. She is the author of a number of articles and books and coeditor of Social Work Practice with Survivors of Sex Trafficking and Commercial Sexual Exploitation (Columbia, 2018).
