Trafficking is a multi-dimensional problem encompassing a whole range of economic, social and cultural issues which are varied and highly complex. Almost every country in the world is affected by trafficking. Poverty and deprivation, secondary status accorded to women in society, prejudice against the girl child, weakening of the family structure, changing public attitude towards sex and morality, urbanization, migration and the growing consumerism are some of the factors that have contributed to trafficking in South Asia. India is no exception to this trend and is emerging as a major source, transit and destination point for trafficking.The present book examines this issue from a gender perspective and analyses three agents in this issue namely the victims, the police, the Non Government Organizations (NGO's) and Community Based Organizations (CBO's). This book will be a useful source for academicians, activists, and students and those interested in social, political and economic issues related with violence against women.
