Transnational Prostitution: Changing Patterns in a Global ContextSusanne Thorbek, Bandana Pattanaik Patterns of prostitution, like so much else in our increasingly inter-connected world, are changing radically, as the investigations in this volume dramatically show.

What emerges is a nuanced and empirically grounded portrait of the complexities of prostitution across national boundaries today. |
