She has published on the impact of anti-trafficking measures on sex workers’ rights, feminist participatory action research, and activist efforts by trafficking survivors, sex workers and domestic workers.
'A stunning, interdisciplinary, international collection of original work, this Handbook challenges the bright line that has been drawn between regular and irregular migration, criminals and victims, and security and mobility. Essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how and why the immigration threat has been produced as a political project, the book refocuses our attention on the devastating social and human costs associated with making people illegal. An absolutely foundational contribution to the development of a criminology of mobility. ' - Nancy A. Wonders, Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Northern Arizona University, USA 'This path-breaking book is filled with empirical detail, regional diversity, theoretical insight, and cutting-edge research on the changing role of criminal justice in the 21st Century as it becomes enmeshed with the control of mobility, the criminalization of migration, and border control. Taken together, the twenty six chapters, written by internationally renowned experts in the field and the next generation, provide new answers and new conceptual tools to tackle the enduring dilemma of crime and immigration. While engaged with traditional debates within criminology, this volume opens up new terrain to show how the control of mobility itself tends to create crime, offering a fresh perspective on public policy that may not be easy to reform, but essential to realize.' - Vanessa Barker, Docent and Associate Professor of Sociology, Stockholm University, Sweden
