Determining Job Burnout Dimensions of Fars Province Gas Company Engineers
Authors: Bagherpour Iman , Feylizadeh Mohammad Reza
Published: December 2019

Introduction: The growth of population and the irregular development of cities have increased the consumption of natural gas, which requires the development of a gas network and the installation of branches for consumers, which has led to an increase in the speed of work and stress of engineers supervising the gas company. Burnout is one of the diseases that occur in stressful jobs. Occupational burnout mediates the relationship between occupational requirements and health. The aim of this study was to determine the dimensions of burnout in supervisory engineers of Fars Province Gas Company.
Methods and Materials: The present study was a descriptive-correlational study performed on 50 out of 100 supervisory engineers in Fars Gas Company during a 3-month period. The method of data collection was self-made questionnaire and the part of emotional and job fatigue was assessed using Maslach burnout questionnaire. The content validity of the questionnaire was assessed qualitatively using the panel of experts and the reliability of the questionnaire was calculated by Cronbach's alpha. Data were analyzed by SPSS 21 software.
Results : Disease records showed that back pain (52درصد), foot pain (23درصد) and ocular disorders (32درصد) were the most common musculoskeletal disorders among observers. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that there is a significant relationship between psychological factors and work stress with marital status, number of children, disease records, housing status and environmental and biological factors (P <0.05) and due to high work stress Emotional exhaustion and subsequent stress are observed by supervising engineers, causing job burnout and depression among them. The mean emotional exhaustion among the participants was 96.2درصد.
Conclusion:  The results of the study showed that more than 78.55درصد of the observers considered unsatisfactory health status. The deficiency and inadequacy of personal protective equipment and psychological problems, emotional exhaustion and stress are more evident among the subjects and require more basic measures in this regard. There was a significant relationship (P <0.05) between the studied areas and the components of psychiatric periodontal examinations with skeletal disorders (P <0.05).

Analysis of Earnings Management and the Estimation Models in Earnings Management
Authors: Liu Xiaohui
Published: December 2019

This paper analyzes critically the early and recent literature on earnings management. I summarize the motivations and estimation models for accrual earnings management and real earnings management. Specifically, I focus on estimation models in real earnings management which are developed by Vorst (2016), extending the original sample period. Cross-sectional analysis reveals that earnings management is detectable purely based on companies’ financial data. The analyses are of interest to investors, regulators, and researchers with respect to the identification and consequences of earnings management.
Analysis on the Sustainable Development of Gong Cha
Authors: Zhang Anqi
Published: December 2019

We selected Gong Cha Monash branch as the research object, conducted a research focusing on four topics which is Food supply chain, Packaging, Procurement and Transport/distribution, and obtained data through on-site interview, email consultation and questionnaire survey.There are some findings after analysing the collected data. Firstly, the main finding of food supply chain is that Gong Cha used Franchising system; all of the quality of materials can be controlled by head office. Although tribute tea has very little food waste, they waste a lot of water resources. Secondly, the main finding of packaging is that Gong Cha uses about 800 disposable plastic cups and straws in PE and LL materials a day, and about 20% customers choose to use another plastic carry bag to carry the drinking. All these raw materials in Gong Cha are transports in cartons, foam paper, and plastic bags and only the cartons are recycled. Thirdly, the main finding of procurement is that there is a storehouse nearby Monash’s sub-branch to provide relevant materials once per week or the employees can go to the storehouse to acquire materials everyday if they need. In order to keep the same standard of product taste or quality, all the raw materials are originated from Taiwan. The in-store containers are reused products, such as aluminum containers for tea and tea-leaves and recycled plastic boxes for pearl and puddings. Finally, the main finding of distribution is that, tea materials are shipped from Taiwan twice a week. Trucks are used for transportation between stores and warehouses. Gong Cha's use of American-invested power distribution equipment, which uses more light, water or energy than any other, violates Monash's network of sustainable solutions. Gong Cha does not offer any training on how to use the equipment sustainably.
Trade Disagreement Between Japan and South Korea
Authors: Wang Yiquan
Published: December 2019

Trade disputes between Japan and South Korea have become increasingly serious. Some people blame the US president for this dispute, while others associate this with the need for the two countries to maintain the upper hand in Asia. Some of the problems are caused by trade restrictions and mutual embargoes between the two countries, all of which are aimed at achieving hegemony. Realism insists that the state develops on a self-sufficient basis, and the fundamental reason for its availability is to strengthen its own strength to help them get assistance in advance. The study will seek to assess whether Japan is willing to strengthen and congest power by undermining the Korean budget. Liberal internationalism assumes that the current global order may create peace, and global cooperation is an effective way to improve national interests. This view will assess whether Japan and South Korea will resolve their problems in a sincere manner and whether the United States will take a more active stance when making a resolution.

Published: December 2019

This report evaluates the effectiveness of corporate social responsibility and contemporary community expectations. It analyses the definition of corporate social responsibility and the community expectations of CSR. The findings indicate that some company corporate social responsibility policy meet the community expectations. For instance, Westpac bank acts well in gender equality and scholar and Telstra has good performance in charity. However, there remain conflicts between CSR and community expectations. Optus collects customer information and leakage with careless conflicting legal element. Clean Tech provides the environmental service which is opposite of economic element in CSR. This report proposes some recommendations for company to keep balance for both CSR and community expectations.
Sustainable Development of Supply Chain in Footwear Industry – Take Nike as the Case
Authors: Jiang Wenjie
Published: December 2019

Rapid growth in demand for designer shoes, rising per capita incomes in developed and developing economies, and the growing popularity of high-end customers and athletic shoes among men have led to a growing global demand for fashionable and comfortable footwear of all ages (FELTON, 2018). The market share of footwear industry has expanded rapidly which attracted more and more new entrants. However, the competition of shoe industry more incline to the competition of the supply chain, so, it is essential to maintain a certain competitiveness in terms of supply chain. Sustainable development is an emerging but important topic. Some processes of the supply chain of the sportswear industry have been accused of restricting its development, such as the use of polluting raw materials and sweatshops. Supply chain development should not only focus on the economic level, but also pay more attention to the environmental and social aspects of sustainable development. Therefore, this paper will take Nike, the most representative company in the footwear industry, as the analysis target to reflect the development of the supply chain of the footwear industry.This paper will start with the general analysis of the footwear industry, followed by considering the industry change; then, analyse Nike’s core product – Nike Flyknit. Further, before making the conclusion, this paper will explore the impact of external factors, i.e. Nike’s cooperation with the US government and footwear related associations, on its supply chain development.

Published: December 2019

Background: Globally, women’s representation in STEM fields remains significantly lower than that of men. Studies assessing the STEM gender gap in disadvantaged rural-based schools are lacking.Objective: To examine the gender differences in attitudes towards STEM and soft skills, and knowledge of role models among students of Nakivale secondary school in Nakivale refugee settlement, southwestern Uganda.Methods: We employed a cross sectional study design that administered pilot tested questionnaires to 111 secondary school students in Nakivale secondary school.Results: More girls than boys reported negative attitudes towards STEM. Both boys and girls demonstrated low attitudes towards the 21st century skills (such as goal setting, leadership skills, team work skills, time management and computer/internet skills), low intentions of pursuing STEM-related subjects in future, as well as limited exposure to STEM role models.Implication: Interventions to address girls’ negative attitudes towards STEM, improve students’ 21st century skills, develop students’ interest in STEM subjects/careers, and link students to role models are urgently needed especially in marginalized areas such as refugee settlements.

Published: December 2019

This study aims to analyse the inclusion rate of two programs, namely Layanan Keuangan Digital (LKD) and Laku Pandai. We found that inclusion rate of LKD program and Laku Pandai program are 28% and 43% respectively when we define inclusion as use of service (access inclusion). However, the rate falls to 5% and 25% respectively when we define inclusion as account ownership. Laku Pandai program has advantages in increasing financial access of people who live in rural area, have low education, and generate low income. We also found that knowledge/certainty in transaction costs (for LKD) and size of access costs in the form of transaction costs and transportation costs (for Laku Pandai) are important determinants of account ownership. ------------------------------------ Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat inklusi keuangan dari program Layanan Keuangan Digital (LKD) dan Laku Pandai. Penulis menemukan bahwa inklusi program LKD dan Laku Pandai berdasarkan penelitian ini mencapai 28% dan 43% apabila inklusi diukur dengan penggunaan layanan (inklusi akses). Namun, inklusi turun ke angka 5% dan 25% apabila inklusi didefinisikan sebagai kepemilikan rekening. Laku Pandai memiliki keunggulan dalam meningkatkan akses keuangan masyarakat yang tinggal di pedesaan, berpendidikan rendah, dan berpendapatan rendah. Pengetahuan/kepastian biaya transaksi (LKD) dan biaya akses dalam bentuk biaya transaksi dan transportasi (Laku Pandai) merupakan faktor yang penting dalam menentukan kepemilikan rekening keuangan.

O MODAL FERROVIÁRIO E A IMPORTÂNCIA DE REVITALIZAÇÃO DA MALHA PARA TRANSPORTE DE PASSAGEIROS: UMA REVISÃO DA LITERATURA
Authors: Bastos Isadora De Paula
Published: December 2019

O transporte ferroviário brasileiro viveu durante muitos anos grande descaso por conta do crescimento do transporte rodoviário e pela falta de investimentos na modernização de sua malha. Contudo, após o processo de concessões, ocorrido no início da década de 90, o transporte ferroviário passou a viver uma nova realidade, com um maior investimento, já que as empresas que foram desestatizadas melhoraram seus indicadores e conseguiram se tornar mais competitivas no mercado. Atualmente, dentro desse contexto, a maior parte da malha ferroviária brasileira é usada para o transporte de cargas e um volume muito pequeno para o transporte de passageiros, normalmente aproveitado para o turismo. Porém, se algumas das linhas fossem revitalizadas para o tráfego de pessoas, conseguiríamos minimizar os congestionamentos, os impactos ambientais, o tempo de viagem, oferecer maior conforto, segurança, oferecendo com isso grande incentivo ao transporte público. O presente estudo traz uma pesquisa teórica sobre o assunto. Espera-se que os resultados, auxiliem outras pesquisas sobre o assunto.
A MATRIZ OCULTA DA VIOLÊNCIA NA MODERNIDADE: DIMENSÕES DO CONSENSO NO PROCESSO PENAL
THE HIDDEN MATRIX OF VIOLENCE IN MODERN TIMES: DIMENSIONS OF CONSENSUS IN CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
Authors: Pozzebon Fabrício Dreyer de Ávila
Published: December 2019

A violência inerente ao processo penal é intensificada na aplicação de categorias que perpassam a questão dos espaços ou dimensões do consenso na justiça criminal, o que será objeto de exame no decorrer do presente trabalho. A partir de uma exposição inicial do contexto contemporâneo de um mundo globalizado e acelerado, pautado pela tecnociência, com problemas e crises que são sentidos em todo o ocidente, passa-se à análise da violência que essa tensão encerra, bem como da relação entre política criminal, direito penal e processo penal, pela qual é possível verificar uma política criminal de tendência utilitarista, com crescentes reflexos legais, cujo objetivo é o de reduzir o tempo do processo para punir de forma mais célere, panorama no qual se insere o estudo do sistema da justiça consensual. O consenso no processo penal implica compreensão das relações de poder. A matriz oculta da violência deve ser entendida no seu aspecto cultural e encontra-se na própria legitimidade da ação coercitiva do Estado. Com a adoção de uma política criminal focada na simplificação do rito e aceleração da resposta penal, direitos e garantias são sacrificados, desvirtuando o sistema processual penal.
PEDAGÓGICA DE ENRIQUE DUSSEL E ENSINO JURÍDICO: ALTERIDADE E CRÍTICA AO SISTEMA PEDAGÓGICO DOS CURSOS DE GRADUAÇÃO EM DIREITO
ENRIQUE DUSSEL’S PEDAGOGICAL AND LEGAL EDUCATION: OTHERNESS AND CRITICICISM TO UNDERGRADUATE LAW DEGREE PEDAGOGICAL SYSTEM
Authors: Barbosa Victor Hugo de Araujo
Published: December 2019

O artigo tematiza a Filosofia da Libertação e o Ensino Jurídico, de forma a demonstrar que a Pedagógica, elemento que disciplina o cara-a-cara e as proximidades por meio de sistemas pedagógicos na filosofia proposta por Enrique Dussel, pode fornecer subsídios à construção de uma crítica ao sistema pedagógico que orienta o Ensino Jurídico, num contexto de precariedade de formação ética dos discentes, que perpetua uma educação opressora e excludente. Objetiva-se demonstrar que a Pedagógica oportuniza uma investigação crítica desse cenário, identificando esse sistema como totalizado, e propõe uma valoração ética de alteridade como solução. O amparo teórico do trabalho se fundamenta nas obras em que Dussel aborda especificamente a Pedagógica e, de forma menos evidente, sua contribuição para uma Ética da Libertação. Alcançou-se o resultado por meio de investigação teórica em pesquisa bibliográfica, de maneira preponderante na obra “La pedagógica latinoamericana”, de Dussel, e em outras que tematizem a relação entre ética e educação jurídica. Busca-se balizar uma abordagem nova do Ensino Jurídico, como contribuição a um contraponto de um ensino que se mostra pretensamente “neutro” e “técnico”, meramente dogmático e que abdica da formação ética para se alcançar uma sociedade mais solidária.

Atualmente não é árdua a tarefa de um cidadão sentir-se nacional dentro de um Estado; todavia a percepção da nacionalidade nem sempre foi consoante com a contemporânea. Com os crescentes conflitos e inseguranças civis que assolam de-terminados Estados, muitos indivíduos obrigam-se a sair de seu país nativo e mi-grar na busca de melhores condições socioeconômicas, ou para assegurar sua vida. O século XX foi fundamental ante a consolidação do conceito de refugiados, espe-cialmente nos períodos póstumos das grandes guerras. A temática acerca dos refugi-ados no continente Europeu ganhou grande destaque nos últimos anos, tendo em vista as crises enfrentadas nos países da África e Oriente Médio. A “Crise Migratória na Europa” atingiu números relevantes, especialmente no ano de 2015, razão a qual os Estados membros da União Europeia necessitaram adotaram novas medidas à situação, todavia, faz-se essencial analisar quais foram as medidas tomadas pelo bloco, bem como a recepção das normativas nos países e o respeito a integridade dos refugiados. O Método de abordagem é o dialético e a técnica de pesquisa ado-tada é a bibliográfica.

Melliferopolis – collaborating with uncontrollable, flying, stinging insects
Authors: Christina Stadlbauer
Published: December 2019

This exposition explores encounters between humans and insects, in the framework of a long term project around honeybees in urban contexts called Melliferopolis. The interventions proposed by Melliferopolis create shared spaces of encounters for Bees and Humans. The choice to work with these insects in an urban and participatory setting creates situations that are surprising, unpredictable or challenge concepts of "safety". The exposition aims to develop an understanding for risks that arise when collaborating with non human animals, explores reactions to situations that are not entirely controllable and elaborates on notions of safety, hazard and unpredictability within practice based artistic research. As the territory to investigate these questions we look at interventions, performances and installations produced in public spaces in the city of Helsinki in the framework of Melliferopolis since 2012.
“On whose side are you?”: Artist-researcher positionality in a global public health challenge
Authors: Kaisu Koski
Published: December 2019

This exposition discusses risks that emerge from the artistic researcher’s fluid position within artistic research. The research entails the artistic researcher interviewing vaccine-critical parents and a vaccine scientist about their opposing standpoints toward immunization and vaccination, while remaining ambivalent and sympathetic toward both views. The exposition uses concepts such as positionality, insider-outsider, and sameness to unpack the various risks arising from the stimulation and staging of conflicting voices about vaccines. These risks include upset participants due to unmet expectations raised partially by the artistic researcher’s understanding attitude, and the pervasiveness of the “voice” of the documentary film being created throughout the artist-researcher’s interactions with the participants.
VOLDELIG LYD
Authors: Edvard Haraldsen Valberg
Published: December 2019

At our concerts we want to be firestarters for chaos, the unexpected, and fierce moshpits. We attempt to establish directionless energy with no particular purpose other than to fuck shit up in an everyday existence that we often feel to be dull, passive and predictable. Through this practice there is in particular one type of experience for which I have garnered an interest – what role danger and fear can play in a musical experience. And, right in the midst of it; the encounter of “zen” in chaos. When I, by chance, came across an article on danger music it became clear that danger in music already was conceptualized. What sort of experiences do we share? What accesses to understand the phenomena danger music is there? What place can these seldom and special experiences of mine of quiet, calm and clearness have in danger music?
Testifying for the Invisible: Documentary Poetics of Estrangement
Authors: Susanna Helke  , Alejandro Pedregal
Published: December 2019

This exposition is a semi-dialogical inquiry into the potential of the methods and poetics of estrangement in documentary and political cinema, where we focus on the representation of the “neoliberal condition” in present-day society. We reflect on and rethink ideas that stem from various theories and strategies of emancipatory practices in cinema and literature. Here we acknowledge the tensions between conventions in for example social documentary, political cinema, and different conceptions of realism versus the idea of estrangement as an artistic strategy. The struggle to emancipate spectatorship and readership from the passivity and uncritical temptations promoted by the spectacles of the hegemonic culture industries has been a central concern in theoretical debates and artistic praxis that involves estrangement as a technique. How do Jacques Rancière’s notions on emancipation and radical equality challenge Brechtian ideas and methods of estrangement? How could the lineages of Third Cinema and testimonial literature help to rethink these matters today? What are actually the relevant means of estrangement in contemporary documentary art and literature?
The Risk of Breaking
Authors: Joanna Sperryn-Jones
Published: December 2019

My sculptural installations 'risk' 2011 and 'Celebration' 2015 were developed after I broke several bones mountain biking and wasn’t able to work in my studio for a year. When I returned to making sculpture I found I could only relate to previous artwork by breaking it. I explore how and why my aesthetic preferences changed after experiencing injury, in particular the new element of risk. I reflect on contrasting experiences of mountain biking and being injured, the tension between the support and restriction of being in plaster and my alienation to my broken arm. Through this I question what motivates people to take risks, how our judgement of risk can change in different circumstances, and if the motivation for men and women taking risks is different. I reflect on the risk to the artwork and to the viewer and different forms of risk in artwork. Finally I recount how this informs the making of 'risk' 2011 and 'Celebration' 2015.

Published: December 2019

Lipodystrophies are a group of disorders characterized by absence or loss of adipose tissue and abnormal fat distribution, commonly accompanied by metabolic dysregulation. Although considered rare disorders, their prevalence in the general population is not well understood. We aimed to evaluate the clinical and genetic prevalence of lipodystrophy disorders in a large clinical care cohort. We interrogated the electronic health record (EHR) information of >1.3 million adults from the Geisinger Health System for lipodystrophy diagnostic codes. We estimate a clinical prevalence of disease of 1 in 20,000 individuals. We performed genetic analyses in individuals with available genomic data to identify variants associated with inherited lipodystrophies and examined their EHR for comorbidities associated with lipodystrophy. We identified 16 individuals carrying the p.R482Q pathogenic variant in LMNA associated with Dunnigan familial partial lipodystrophy. Four had a clinical diagnosis of lipodystrophy, whereas the remaining had no documented clinical diagnosis despite having accompanying metabolic abnormalities. We observed a lipodystrophy-associated variant carrier frequency of 1 in 3,082 individuals in our cohort with substantial burden of metabolic dysregulation. We estimate a genetic prevalence of disease of ∼1 in 7,000 in the general population. Partial lipodystrophy is an underdiagnosed condition. and its prevalence, as defined molecularly, is higher than previously reported. Genetically guided stratification of patients with common metabolic disorders, like diabetes and dyslipidemia, is an important step toward precision medicine.
A Critical Insulin TCR Contact Residue Selects High-Affinity and Pathogenic Insulin-Specific T Cells
Authors: Bettini Maria , Scavuzzo Marissa A. , Liu Baoyu , Kolawole Elizabeth , Guo Lin , Evavold Brian D. , Borowiak Malgorzata , Bettini Matthew L.
Published: December 2019

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune-mediated disease that culminates in the targeted destruction of insulin-producing β-cells. CD4 responses in NOD mice are dominated by insulin epitope B:9-23 (InsB9-23) specificity, and mutation of the key T-cell receptor (TCR) contact residue within the epitope prevents diabetes development. However, it is not clear how insulin self-antigen controls the selection of autoimmune and regulatory T cells (Tregs). Here we demonstrate that mutation of insulin epitope results in escape of highly pathogenic T cells. We observe an increase in antigen reactivity, clonality, and pathogenicity of insulin-specific T cells that develop in the absence of cognate antigen. Using a single TCR system, we demonstrate that Treg development is greatly diminished in mice with the Y16A mutant epitope. Collectively, these results suggest that the tyrosine residue at position 16 is necessary to constrain TCR reactivity for InsB9-23 by both limiting the development of pathogenic T cells and supporting the selection of Tregs.
Trippelhelix, harmonisering och kritiskt motstånd
Authors: Friberg Torbjörn
Published: December 2019

Artikeln syftar till att avtäcka de harmoniseringsprocesser som utgår från Trippelhelixmodellen. Detta för att öka medvetenheten om kritiskt motstånd bland universitetslärare. Då denna policymodell har som intention att söka harmonisera olikartade världar – universitetet, industrin och staten – är det relevant att studera dessa processer både textuellt och praktiskt. Artikelns kunskapsproduktion utgår från ett etnografiskt angreppssätt, som en generativ källa till det fenomen som undersöks (dvs. harmonisering utefter Trippelhelix-modellen). Mot bakgrund av det framväxande Mode 2-samhället pekar resultaten på policymakarnas möjligheter till att avväpna kritiskt motstånd. Implikationerna av denna analys visar på ett möjligt kritiskt motstånd för framtida universitetslärare.
English abstract
English title: Triple Helix, Harmonisation, and Critical Resistance
The purpose of this article is to disclose the harmonisation processes that take their point of departure in the triple helix model of innovation, in order to increase awareness of critical resistance among university teachers. As this policy model intends to harmonise different sectors – universities, industry, and the state – it is relevant to study these processes both textually and practically. Knowledge production in this article is based on an ethnographic approach, as a generative source for the phenomenon under investigation (i.e., harmonisation according to the triple helix model). Against the backdrop of the emerging “Mode 2” society, the results outline policymakers’ prospects of disarming critical resistance. The implications of this analysis indicate possible critical resistance from future university teachers.
Property Crime and Tourists
Authors: Mawby Rob
Published: December 2019

This chapter addresses the extent to which tourists are at risk of property crimes. It starts with a discussion of the difficulties of measuring crime risk that largely replicate those in mainstream criminology, but with the additional problem that the number of tourists – in the general population or who are victimised – is rarely distinguished. Accepting these limitations, police statistics, victim surveys, newspaper data, and offenders’ accounts of their preferred targets are used to confirm that tourists are indeed overrepresented among the victims of property crime. This seems to apply across different offence categories, such as burglary, vehicle theft, robbery/theft from the person, and fraud. The final section attempts to explain the findings. Combining routine activity theory, opportunity theory and rational choice theory, four dimensions are identified that help explain why tourists consitute a high risk category: rewards, justifiability of target, guardianship and accessibility.
Child Sex Tourism
Authors: Montgomery Heather
Published: December 2019

If sex tourism is the dark, if debated, side of tourism, then child sex tourism represents the line in the sand that should never be crossed. While sex tourism involving adults provokes a variety of opinions and positions (Cohen, 1982; Oppermann, 1998; Kempadoo et al., 2005; O’Connell-Davidson and Sánchez Taylor, 2005; Sánchez Taylor, 2006; Day, 2007; Eades, 2009), child prostitution involving tourists is universally condemened and high-profile cases, such as the trial of Gary Glitter, point to the depths of public revulsion against such behaviour. The last 20 years have seen vocal campaigns against child sex tourism, resulting in changes in national legislation in many countries, statements and taskforces from the World Tourism Organization, the inauguration of World Congresses against the Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children and a universal determination to stamp out a crime and a moral outrage. Despite the public outcry and changes in legislation, however, child sex tourism continues and, in some ways, the moral indignation that the subject arouses obscures certain aspects of the situations in which children caught up in prostitution live and work. There is still a dearth of information about how children meet clients, what is expected of them and their paths in and out of prostitution (Montgomery, 2001a, 2001b). Their clients are even more unknown and there is very little research (as opposed to anecdotal) evidence that discusses their motivations, their modus operandi or their choices about which countries they will visit and where they can find opportunities for sexual activity with children (Ennew, 1986; Montgomery, 2008; for an excellent overview of the available evidence see O’Connell-Davidson, 2005). At both national and international levels, legislation to protect children, although much heralded, has proved inadequate, and left unanswered important questions about enforcement and practical help for the children affected. In this chapter, I examine the legislation in place to tackle the problem of child sex tourism, and contrast this with a case study from Thailand of a small community in which children worked as prostitutes in order to support their parents and themselves. In doing so, I am not arguing for any moral ambivalence or ambiguity in discussions of child sex tourism. Rather, I wish to point out the lacuna between those discussions and the lived realities of the children.
