There’s an App for That? Ethical consumption in the fight against trafficking for labour exploitation

Among the market-based strategies being used to fight trafficking for labour exploitation are apps aimed at encouraging ethical consumption. Such apps have surfaced in tandem with the increased involvement of businesses in anti-trafficking efforts and the promotion of social entrepreneurism. In this article, I describe and critically analyse three apps aimed at individual consumers, arguing that they do little to actually address labour exploitation. They rest on questionable assumptions about consumption, employ problematic assessment methodologies, and rely on business models that do more to provide opportunities for social entrepreneurs in the burgeoning anti-trafficking field than solutions for labour exploitation in the global economy.

有一个应用程序吗?打击以劳动剥削为目的的贩运中的道德消费

在旨在打击以劳工剥削为目的的贩运的基于市场的战略中,有一些旨在鼓励道德消费的应用程序。随着企业越来越多地参与反人口贩运活动和促进社会企业家精神,此类应用程序已经浮出水面。在本文中,我描述并批判性地分析了针对个人消费者的三个应用程序,认为它们对解决劳动剥削没有多大作用。他们基于关于消费的可疑假设,采用有问题的评估方法,并依赖于商业模型,这些模型在为新兴的反人口贩运领域提供社会企业家机会而不是为全球经济中的劳动力剥削提供更多解决方案。
