Armstrong, E. (2000). Exploring the factors that push young women into sex work in northern Thailand - A critical appraisal of policy responses. 43 p. "Prostitution is a well-known phenomenon in Thailand. Women find themselves engaging in sex work for a variety of reasons. This dissertation sketches a picture of the commercial sex industry in Thailand and explores the push factors that determine a woman's entry into the industry. Tracing the supply of women leads to a focus on rural life in the North, and requires an understanding of how Thailand’s development strategy has increased the rural-urban divide, thus increasing levels of migration to the city and demand for jobs."

Atlanta Women's Agenda. (2005). Hidden in Plain View. The Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Girls in Atlanta. 68 p. "Atlanta, being a convention and sports event center, has a thriving "adult entertainment" industry: strip clubs, lingerie and sex shops, escort services, massage parlors. At the same time, Atlanta generates its own lost battalions of emotionally and physically abandoned children and is a magnet for such children from outlying areas. These children are vulnerable to the pimps and their recruiters, but the pimp would have no interest in the children if there were no demand."

La prostituzione invisibile. 203 p. “Pertanto la ricerca, che ha come proprio oggetto di indagine la prostituzione invisibile e le sue connessioni con i fenomeni dell’immigrazione femminile,della tratta e del traffico di esseri umani provenienti dall’est Europa,ha tradotto questo compito con una lettura dell’invisibilità della prostituzione nella sua dimensione spazio–temporale in tutti gli scenari del mercato del sesso a pagamento attualmente esistenti; tutto ciò con l’obiettivo di individuare l’incidenza che questa ha nel rapporto tra mercati del sesso a pagamento e principali attori coinvolti cercando di evidenziarne cause, effetti e possibili ulteriori trasformazioni.” Italian.
