Responding to Human Trafficking provides a new framework for critical analyses of anti-trafficking and other rights-based and anti-violence interventions. Author Julie Kaye disrupts measures that contribute to the insecurity experienced by trafficked women, and individuals affected by anti-trafficking responses, by pointing to anti-colonial organizing and the possibilities of reciprocity in relationships of care.
