Sex Trafficking in Postcolonial Literature: Transnational Narratives from Joyce to Bolaño de Laura Barberán Reinares

Sex Trafficking in Postcolonial Literature: Transnational Narratives from Joyce to Bolaño: Routledge Research in Postcolonial Literatures

Autor Laura Barberán Reinares
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 feb 2017
At present, the bulk of the existing research on sex trafficking originates in the social sciences. Sex Trafficking in Postcolonial Literature adds an original perspective on this issue by examining representations of sex trafficking in postcolonial literature.
This book is a sustained interdisciplinary study bridging postcolonial literature, in English and Spanish, and sex trafficking, as analyzed through literary theory, anthropology, sociology, history, trauma theory, journalism, and globalization studies. It encompasses postcolonial theory and literature’s aesthetic analysis of sex trafficking together with research from social sciences, psychology, anthropology, and economics with the intention of offering a comprehensive analysis of the topic beyond the type of Orientalist discourse so prevalent in the media. This is an important and innovative resource for scholars in literature, postcolonial studies, gender studies, human rights and global justice.

Recenzii

"Previous studies of human trafficking have made use of feminist legal framework, migration literature and even post-colonialism (Barberán Reinares, 2014; Desyllas, 2007; Lobasz, 2009; Wolken, 2006). As such, a transnational sociological approach to human trafficking that draws upon cross-discipline research has been called for, because it 'can help to provide a broad and integrating framework for understanding its varying dimensions in comparative and global contexts...to better understand its causes, dynamics and the consequences of its intensification in the current wave of globalization' (Limoncelli, 2009a, p. 73). The ability to incorporate interdisciplinary thought such as feminism or post-colonialism allows for a more nuanced understanding of the contexts in which migration and human trafficking occurs in various global regions, as well as what populations are made vulnerable to trafficking by globalization." (83)
-Sarah Hupp Williamson, Journal of International Women's Studies
"[Sex Trafficking in Postcolonial Literature] is of interest not only to literary critics working on postcolonial literature, but also to anthropologists, sociologists, and historians working on the global sex industry."
-James Joyce Literary Supplement 2016
