- Summary:
- "In 2011, American Psychological Association (APA) created a system wide Task Force on Human Trafficking of Women and Girls. This APA task force report was the impetus for future and significant work that APA and its divisions have undertaken to counter human trafficking. This book, published by APA, is the latest example of APA's commitment to understanding how psychology can play a pivotal role in combating the trafficking of humans. Each author is a committed and highly knowledgeable expert on their area of human trafficking. The authors and coeditors of the present book are stellar scholars, clinicians, and researchers. They have created a much-needed and sought-after collection of what different fields of psychology (e.g., social, clinical, positive psychology, industrial or organization psychology, developmental) can bring to the issue of human trafficking. The book captures major frameworks to understand the intricacies of human trafficking, including a much-neglected area, labor trafficking. All authors bring their unique lens and knowledge about human trafficking to their chapters. The book offers a unique and essential voice to this grave human rights violation. It truly advances the knowledge of how psychology can assist survivors of trafficking and ultimately eliminate human trafficking. This book synthesizes current psychological scholarship and translates theory into practice. It emphasizes social determinants of human trafficking such as poverty, race, and gender. The book will become a classic and mandatory reading for all psychologists and other mental health professionals who want to understand human trafficking from a psychological lens." --Preface (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
