Description
Summary:Child prostitution became one of the key concerns of the international community in the 1990s. World congresses were held, international and national laws were changed and concern over ""cemmercially sexually exploited children"" rose dramatically. Rarely, however, were the children who worked as prostitutes consulted of questioned in this process, and the voices of these children brought into focus. This book is the first to address the children directly, to examine their daily lives, their motivations and their perceptions of what they do. Based on 15 months of fieldwork in a Thai tourist.
