Forced Prostitution: Naming An International Offense, Nora V. Demleitner Jan 1994

Forced Prostitution: Naming An International Offense, Nora V. Demleitner

Scholarly Articles

This paper presents an argument for recognizing “forced prostitution” as an international of- fense in its own right for which the procurers, brothel owners and managers, and financiers as well as the women’s customers can be held criminally liable.
