Description: This publication argues that sex trafficking, or the trade in women and children, depends on nations which support the regulated system of brothels since, without the legalized brothels, there would be fewer places where young girls and women might be forced into prostitution. Abolitionism, according to the International Abolitionist Federation, appears as the only logical solution to international sex trafficking. In nine chapters, the document provides the history of abolitionism, including analyses of the campaign's beginnings in the United Kingdom, its increasing international profile, various conferences held in the early-twentieth century, and its later relationship with the League of Nations.
Notes: At head of title: Fédération Abolitionniste Internationale.
