"In Pursuing Johns, Thomas C. Mackey studies the New York Committee of Fourteen and its members' attempts to influence vagrancy laws in early-20th-century New York City as a way to criminalize men's patronizing of female prostitutes. It sought out and prosecuted the city's immoral hotels, unlicensed bars, opium dens, disorderly houses, and prostitutes. It did so because of the threats to individual "character" such places presented. In the early 1920s, led by Frederick Whitin, the Committee thought that the time had arrived to prosecute the men who patronized prostitutes through what modern parlance calls a "john's law."" "Mackey's contribution to the literature is unique. Instead of looking at how vice commissions targeted female prostitutes or the commerce supporting and surrounding them, Mackey concentrates on how men were scrutinized."--Jacket.

Although slavery is illegal throughout the world, we learned from Kevin Bales's highly praised exposé, Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy, that more than twenty-seven million people-in countries from Pakistan to Thailand to the United States--are still trapped in bondage. With this new volume, Bales, the leading authority on modern slavery, looks beyond the specific instances of slavery described in his last book to explore broader themes about slavery's causes, its continuation, and how it might be ended. Written to raise awareness and deepen understanding, and touching again on individual lives around the world, this book tackles head-on one of the most urgent and difficult problems facing us today. Each of the chapters in Understanding Global Slavery explores a different facet of global slavery. Bales investigates slavery's historical roots to illuminate today's puzzles. He explores our basic ideas about what slavery is and how the phenomenon fits into our moral, political, and economic worlds. He seeks to explain how human trafficking brings people into our cities and how the demand for trafficked workers, servants, and prostitutes shapes modern slavery. And he asks how we can study and measure this mostly hidden crime. Throughout, Bales emphasizes that to end global slavery, we must first understand it. This book is a step in that direction.

Dès les débuts de l'expansion belge au Congo, les coloniaux ont noué des liens intimes avec les femmes africaines qu'ils rencontraient, parfois pour des périodes prolongées de vie commune. Ces liaisons avec celles qui seront rapidement désignées par le doux euphémisme de " ménagères " ont constitué un sujet de préoccupation pour les autorités qui les ont successivement encouragées, tolérées, puis fermement condamnées. Bien plus qu'une simple histoire des " ménagères ", cet ouvrage propose une étude de la perception de ces relations par les sociétés coloniale et métropolitaine et des politiques de morale sexuelle mises en place par les autorités. Il aborde également la prostitution autochtone et les anxiétés et les réactions qu'elle suscite. Ces dernières illustrent la volonté de l'Etat colonial de contrôler des pratiques jugées subversives ainsi que le caractère stratégique de la sexualité en situation coloniale
