<p>Human Trafficking: Global History and Global Perspectives by Elisha J. Dung and Augustine Avwunudiogba is a timely, pleasant, and brilliant addition to the growing literature on one of the scourges facing our civilization. As an edited volume, the editors assembled scholars from around the world and from different but complementary academic disciplines. By so doing, they helped to expand and illuminate our understanding of human trafficking.</p>
- Sabella O. Abidde, Alabama State University,
<p>This is a remarkable book on the prevalent and concerning global phenomenon of human trafficking. It is an edited volume that captures in eighteen well-researched chapters on the historical, socioeconomic, cultural, and legal aspects of contemporary human trafficking worldwide. The contributors, derived from a broad variety of scholarly backgrounds, some of whom are fresh voices, have also systematically analyzed the problem of human trafficking from varying theoretical perspectives that are grounded within socio-cultural and spatial contexts. The multidisciplinary nature of this book shines probing insights on this illicit commodification of human bodies and makes it an essential read for all stakeholders including scholars, governments, public policymakers, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and international organizations concerned with and interested in further understanding and finding solutions to the problem of trafficking in persons.</p>
