Comments
This course critically examines the historical dimensions of forced labor, slavery, and trafficking in women, with a focus on international anti-trafficking regimes in the 20th century. By exploring the intersection of power relations, gender, and colonial legacies, students will analyze how these issues have been addressed globally. We will delve into the development, interpretation, and implementation of key international legal frameworks against slavery, forced labor, and trafficking, as well as the role of international organizations such as the League of Nations, the ILO, and the United Nations. The course will engage in conceptual discussions on how to analyze historical practices of exploitation, investigating various frameworks such as asymmetrical dependency, precariousness, informal labor, and unfree labor. Additionally, the course will examine the gendered aspects of trafficking, assessing how global and local efforts have shaped the experiences of women subjected to labor exploitation and human trafficking. This analytical approach aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the historical development of international anti-trafficking regimes, fostering a critical perspective on both past and ongoing global efforts. close
