Drawing on years of in-depth fieldwork, Elizabeth Bernstein sheds light not only on trafficking but also on the broader structures that meld the ostensible pursuit of liberation with contemporary techniques of power.

Description :

Brokered Subjects digs deep into the accepted narratives of sex trafficking to

reveal the troubling assumptions that have shaped both right- and left-wing

agendas around sexual violence. Drawing on years of in-depth fieldwork,

Elizabeth Bernstein sheds light not only on trafficking but also on the broader

structures that meld the ostensible pursuit of liberation with contemporary

techniques of power. Rather than any meaningful commitment to the safety of

sex workers, Bernstein argues, what lies behind our current vision of trafficking

victims is a transnational mix of putatively humanitarian militaristic

interventions, feel-good capitalism, and what she terms carceral feminism: a

feminism compatible with police batons.
