探讨人口贩运作为一个全球性社会问题(重新)出现的问题，本文对庇护决定进行了分析，其中庇护和/或人道主义保护申请包括对向英国的人口贩运的描述。该条追溯了贩运人口的出现，认为这是一种可信的难民地位申请，并认为这种承认是特定时间和特定故事的。英国内政部确认了人口贩运受害者的身份，其中一名索赔人的描述反映了21世纪初人口贩运活动和虚构的人口贩运活动中所呈现的狭义女性“性贩运受害者”的定义。本文通过探讨人口贩运故事在庇护决定中建立“理想的”人口贩运受害者所做的工作，说明了社会问题和法律判决如何通过情景和战略故事讲述而深刻地塑造。这些发现发展了对社会条件和微观-中观-宏观身份叙事的社会建构及其之间关系的理解。
Exploring the (re)emergence of human trafficking as a global social problem, this article presents an analysis of asylum determinations where claims for Asylum and/or Humanitarian Protection included accounts of trafficking to the UK. The article traces the emergence of trafficking as a credible claim for refugee status and argues that this recognition was time-specific and story-specific. Trafficking victims were identified by the UK Home Office where a claimant’s narrative mirrored the narrowly defined female ‘sex trafficking victim’ presented in campaigns and fictional depictions of human trafficking in the early 21st century. Through an exploration of the work that trafficking stories did in establishing an ‘ideal’ trafficking victim in asylum determinations, this article illustrates how social problems and legal judgments can be profoundly shaped by situated and strategic storytelling. These findings develop an understanding of the social construction of, and relationships between, social conditions and micro-meso-macro narratives of identity.
