More about the book
The book explores the complex dynamics of human trafficking and state response, particularly in the UK. It critiques how the UK highlights the trafficking of women to project a positive self-image while simultaneously engaging in aggressive policies against migrants. Annie Hill argues that the nation's celebrated rescue efforts are intertwined with its hostile migration stance, revealing a dual narrative that constructs "trafficked women" and "illegal migrants" to reinforce an Anglo-white national identity.
