Trafficking in Women (1924-1926)

The Paul Kinsie Reports for the League of Nations - Volume 1

Format *
This book provides a transcription of the reports written by undercover agent Paul Kinsie for the League of Nations Special Body of Experts on Traffic in Women and Children in the mid-1920s. Between 1924 and 1926, a team travelled to more than a hundred cities in Europe, the Americas and the Mediterranean area to interview individuals involved in the regulation, repression, medical control, organization and practice of the sex trade. American undercover agents were included on the team to infiltrate the so-called ‘underworld’ and obtain ‘facts’ about the traffic. The book offers a unique source of information which is of great ethnographic value for people interested in the history of human trafficking and prostitution.
