摘要

虽然孟加拉国在宪法上是一个伊斯兰国家,但一些妓院受到国家法律的管制。但这些妓院都位于郊区,首都周围曾有合法的妓院,但现在已不复存在。因此,卖淫的方式多种多样,包括在住宅酒店、度假村、家庭和露天场所。由于卖淫和贩卖人口密不可分,本文采用定量方法来衡量孟加拉国首都达卡与卖淫和贩卖 儿童相关的社会经济变量。本研究的数据收集自 385 名受访者,问卷格式为开放式。提出的概念模型包括影响卖淫的社会文化和经济因素。为研究该模型,采用了三层次研究设计。本研究收集并分析了受访者的社会人口学数据。研究发现,贫穷和缺乏就业机会是重要的经济因素。此外,社会文化变量与强奸、骚扰、离婚、家庭成员支持不足、生活条件脆弱、社会不稳定、生活方式和性别暴力密切相关。这些研究结果表明,孟加拉国有必要执行现有的反人口贩运法律,并提高儿童的认识,以制止为性工作目的贩运儿童的行为。

The Socioeconomic Factors of Female Child Trafficking and Prostitution: An Empirical Study in the Capital City of Bangladesh
Although Bangladesh is a constitutionally Islamic country, some brothels are regulated by state law. But these brothels are located in the suburbs, and there were legal brothels around the capital, which no longer exist. Thus, prostitution is observed in a variety of ways, including in residential hotels, resorts, homes, and open spaces. As prostitution and trafficking are inseparable, this paper adopts a quantitative approach to measure the socioeconomic variables associated with prostitution and trafficking in children in the capital city of Dhaka, Bangladesh. The data for this study were collected from 385 respondents, and the questionnaire format was open-ended. The proposed conceptual model is presented in a way that includes sociocultural and economic factors influencing prostitution. To examine the model, a three-level research design was applied. The sociodemographic data of the respondents were collected and analyzed in this study. This study finds that the significant economic factors are poverty and lack of employment opportunities. Moreover, sociocultural variables are closely associated with rape, harassment, divorce, insufficient support from household members, living in vulnerable conditions, social instability, lifestyle, and gender violence. These findings emphasize the need to implement existing anti-trafficking laws and raise awareness of children in Bangladesh to stop child trafficking for sex work.
