The specific legal issue of "Trafficking and Asylum" is addressed in chapter 3, pp. 197-208. Sub-sections include "Trafficking and the Right to Seek and Receive Asylum," "Trafficking as the Basis for a Refugee Status," "Conclusion on Trafficking as a Basis for Asylum," and "A Note on Trafficking and Internal Displacement." Non-refoulement is discussed in chapter 6, "Obligations related to Repatriation and Remedies."
Ms. Gallagher is also a co-author of the just released ASEAN Handbook on International Legal Cooperation in Trafficking in Persons Cases (Asia Regional Trafficking in Persons Project, 2010), a new resource developed "to help improve cooperation between criminal justice officials who are involved in cross-border trafficking investigations."(As an aside, there is another expert on human trafficking with a similar name: Anna Marie Gallagher, who serves as a resource person on this issue for the Southern Refugee Legal Aid Network (SRLAN)!)
Another publication out this month focuses on both Asia and Europe. Called Trafficking And Human Rights: European and Asia-Pacific Perspectives, it's edited by Leslie Holmes and published by Edward Elgar (Nov. 2010). Here's a bit from the blurb:
This fascinating study by international experts provides original research findings on human trafficking, with particular reference to Europe, South-East Asia and Australia. A major focus is on why and how many states and organisations act in ways that undermine trafficked victims’ rights, as part of ‘quadruple victimisation’. It compares and contrasts policies and suggests which seem to work best and why. The contributors also advocate radical new approaches that most states and other formal organisations appear loath to introduce, for reasons that are explored in this unique book.Tagged Publications.
