摘要

国际上对儿童性剥削(CSE)给予了关注,但从澳大利亚的情况来看,关于这一问题的证据有限,特别是在理解这种形式的性虐待方面。本定性研究从儿童保护和家庭外个案工作者(N = 15)的角度探讨了CSE,这些个案工作者来自澳大利亚一个大型州政府地区部门的三个区域办事处。其目的是为澳大利亚的证据基础提供经验贡献,以增进对全面性教育的了解,并支持有关其概念化和定义的政策和实践发展,以有效预防和干预。分析表明,性剥削有三种受害途径,围绕(未满足的)需求和犯罪者的收益进行组织,没有单一的犯罪者类型。家庭、关系、生活环境和法定护理参与是“风险”的重要领域,这些“风险”结合在一起,使人们容易受到性剥削,同时它们本身也很重要。研究结果表明,澳大利亚迫切需要在政策和实践方向上制定一个共同的定义,以解释CSE受害的多种模式,并认识到非商业CSE脆弱性和滥用的未满足需求的中心地位。因此,本文也有助于关于性剥削作为一种性虐待形式的特殊性的批判性辩论,以及为有效的应对策略保留其作为剥削的定义区别的必要性。

Understanding Child Sexual Exploitation in Australia: An Empirical Contribution to the Evidence Base

Attention has been given to child sexual exploitation (CSE) internationally yet there is limited evidence about the issue deriving from Australian contexts, particularly so for understanding this form of sexual abuse. This qualitative study explored CSE from the perspectives of child protection and out-of-home caseworkers (N = 15) from across three regional offices of one large state government district department in Australia. The aim was to provide an empirical contribution to the Australian evidence base in order to progress understanding of CSE, and to support policy and practice developments regarding its conceptualisation and definition for effective prevention and intervention. Analysis indicates three victimisation pathways for sexual exploitation, organised around (unmet) need and perpetrator gain, with no single perpetrator type. Family, relationships, living circumstances and statutory care involvement are important domains for ‘risks’ that coalesce to inform vulnerability to sexual exploitation, while also being significant in their own right. Findings suggest an urgent need for a shared definition in policy and practice directions in Australia that accounts for multiple models of CSE victimisation, and which recognises the centrality of unmet need to non-commercial CSE vulnerability and abuse. This paper therefore also contributes to emerging critical debate about the particularities of sexual exploitation as a form of a sexual abuse, and the need to retain its definitional distinction as exploitation for effective response strategies.
