Sommario/riassunto

Sex work is often called the oldest profession in the world.It manifests itself in a plethora of forms.A move to private locations is now taking place: contacts are established via the Internet and meetings take place at appointed places.This makes it more difficult to monitor forced work, and exploitation therefore risks remaining undetected.
