Associate Professor Corey Shdaimah participates in a roundtable at the Annual Meetings of the Law and Society Association in Toronto on Saturday June 9th with Edith Kinney of San José State University, Chrysanthi Leon, of the University of Delaware, and Jennifer Musto of Wellesley College.
The roundtable, "At the Crossroads of Law, Policy, and Reform: Teaching and Researching Sex Work, Prostitution, and Trafficking," explored how research and teaching can help overcome hurdles to broader understanding regarding legal and policy reform efforts targeting sex work, prostitution, and trafficking. Drawing on research in global and local contexts, from the street to the courtroom to the classroom, the roundtable provided a forum for interdisciplinary exchange and reflection on research, scholar-activism, and pedagogical considerations to navigate analyses of the sex trades at the crossroads of law, policy, and reform.
