Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The globalization of legal and sexual norms through anti-trafficking policies constitutes an emerging socio-legal forum in which to analyze the construction, regulation, and deployment of state-sanctioned sexualities. Transnational collaborative infrastructures attempt to address sex trafficking by linking together taskforces of government officials, NGOs and advocacy groups, as well as motley health and moral activists poised to identify and assist victims. To assess the socio-legal implications of Progressivist policy shifts constructing migrant sex workers as “victims,” rather than “criminals,” this paper identifies patterns of norm transmission through the networks, organizational cultures, and interactions of those charged with implementing anti-trafficking efforts—government officials, non-governmental advocacy groups, and activists—as well as the schemas invoked by sex workers and clients negotiating commercial sex transactions. These normative and behavioral codes mediate the efficacy of human rights-centered anti-trafficking movements, in turn shaping patterns of reception or resistance within targeted populations. This project explores the mutual construction of social and, legal identities through sex laws, drawing contrasts and continuities between Progressive Era regulations of the “white slave trade” and contemporary anti-trafficking reform movements in Thailand and the United States, focusing particularly on the economic and political implications of international shaming mechanisms in policies exemplified by the U.S. Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000. Mapping the political economy of sexual commerce and trafficking discourses in the U.S. and the deployment of similar discourses in “developing” nations problematizes the “export” of human rights regimes, the transposition of sexual norms, and burgeoning international standards of gender equality. Exploring the networks and strategies of organizations charged with translating overlapping anti-trafficking infrastructures into action affords scholars, policymakers, and activists an interpretation of the sexual politics of human trafficking sensitive to cultural, historical, and political variation.
