Comparing Narratives of Justice

Résumé du livre

"Criminal justice stakeholders, including law enforcement and prosecutors, face challenges in understanding, identifying, and responding to human trafficking cases. Past research shows that criminal justice stakeholders often harbor misconceptions about human trafficking and may view survivors as "illegal immigrants" or as complicit in their victimization, conflate trafficking with undocumented migration and prostitution, and hold negative stereotypes toward survivors. Despite this, little is known about how criminal justice stakeholders perceive their work on human trafficking cases and how they conceptualize "justice" for survivors. To improve criminal justice responses to trafficking, it is important to understand how those tasked with responding to human trafficking cases understand justice and how their understandings either fit with or diverge from those of survivors."
