Abstract:
AbstractAlmost all of the studies of prostitution in Republican era China have focused on big cities. Using recently rediscovered field notes from a social survey of the small town of Gaoyang in Hebei province, this article describes the practice of prostitution in the mid-1930s and considers how small-town prostitution differed from that in big cities. The women working in the sex trade in Gaoyang were all “clandestine” or unregistered prostitutes, who had been attracted to the town, which was the center of a major rural weaving district where there was a large number of unattached males who

Abstract:
Prostitution in Singapore was linked to economic factors in rural China and Japan. Congenital poverty, weak family economies, and rising economic expectations were all part of a set of prevailing conditions that created a vast source of supply of Chinese and Japanese women and young girls for international traffic. Life in both countries was exceptionally difficult in the second half of the nineteenth century. Although China had considerable wealth, most lived a hand to mouth existence in the over-populated rural areas. Poverty in the villages and outlying districts of southeastern China, wher

Abstract:
SummaryThis study pursues three goals: to unravel the socio-economic conditions which pushed women into prostitution and courtesanship, to analyse their position in Chinese society, and to relate what changes occurred at the end of the Ming dynasty that affected their status. According to contemporary judicial regulations, both prostitutes and courtesans were classified as “entertainers”, and therefore had the status of jianmin [mean people], which made them “outcasts” and pariahs. But there were great differences, beyond the bestowal of sexual favours, in the kind of work these women performe

Abstract:
Most sociological and historical accounts on sex trafficking and Japanese war crimes focus on conceptual and theoretical analyses concerning linkages between sex trafficking, social stratification, and victims. While these studies enhance theoretical knowledge about sexual slavery, they do not meticulously explore how the Japanese actually manipulated and managed sexual slavery in China into a legalized practice despite the fact that it blatantly violated Japanese and international law. I argue that Japan attempted to design sexual slavery into a legalized practice by exercising a Panopticon,

India has lost an estimated total of 79,732 people with 108 crores displaced as a result of 321 separate natural disasters between 2000‒2019. Together with China, this accounts for approximately 70 % of the global loss during disasters. As the second-most-affected nation in the world, India suffers maximum from floods. Every year, almost 34.5 billion people in India are impacted due to an average of almost 17 floods that hit the region every year. Vulnerability of children in such situations, exacerbates their weaknesses significantly. This makes them an easy prey for abuse and exploitation. M

Abstract:
China has experienced an explosion in the sex ratio at birth, with 25 million more men than women younger than 20 (2005 census). This chapter examines the implications of large numbers of men failing to marry on the supply-and-demand dynamics of sex work, with a focus on how this affects the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The chapter begins with a history of prostitution in China and describes the massive increase in sex work following economic reforms in the late 1970s. It then analyzes the current dynamics of demand and supply for sex work in China, using national cens

Abstract:
Passed in 1875 and named after California’s Republican House Representative Horace Page, the Page Act (or An Act Supplementary to the Acts in Relation to Immigration) empowered U.S. consuls-general and consuls to oversee and deny immigration to the United States from Asian countries. Japan, China, and “Oriental” nations were specifically referred to in the legislation. Two groups were targeted. Laborers who were deemed not “free and voluntary” and Asian women believed to be immigrating for immoral purposes, such as prostitution, were prohibited.
