Domestic sex trafficking has yet to appear on the policy agenda in Aotearoa New Zealand, and yet to be met with a law enforcement response. Accordingly, we have minimal knowledge about the contexts in which sex trafficking is perpetrated and what victims’ experiences involve. This article focuses specifically on the attainment and negotiation of social capital by victims whose access to traditional capital is at least partially restricted by their social and familial contexts. Sixteen victims of domestic sex trafficking participated in semistructured interviews. The data were analyzed using an adapted version of Clanindin and Connelly’s (2000) three-dimensional structure of narrative analysis. Three of the themes emerging from this are discussed here; namely abuse and mistreatment in early life, the negotiation of survival within the trafficking context, and sexuality as a bargaining tool. We argue that victims’ access to traditional mechanisms of social capital accrual may be precluded by the multiple sites of gendered disadvantage that collude to entrap victims in a subordinate and exploited position. However, to negotiate their continued survival despite the constraints to their agency, they appear to access both vicarious physical capital and feminized (and usually sexualised) capital by instrumentalizing their sexual appeal or prowess and the protection of the subjectively more powerful male “partner.”

资本积累和约束:国内性交易受害者对替代资本和女性化资本的谈判

国内性交易尚未出现在新西兰的政策议程上,也尚未得到执法部门的回应。因此,我们对性交易发生的背景以及受害者的经历知之甚少。本文特别关注受害者获取和协商社会资本的问题,这些受害者获得传统资本至少部分受到其社会和家庭背景的限制。16 名家庭性交易受害者参加了半结构化访谈。使用改编版的 Clanindin 和 Connelly (2000) 叙事分析的三维结构对数据进行分析。这里讨论了由此产生的三个主题;即早年的虐待和虐待,在贩运背景下的生存谈判,以及作为谈判工具的性行为。我们认为,受害者获得社会资本积累的传统机制可能会被多个性别劣势站点所排除,这些站点串通使受害者处于从属和被剥削的地位。然而,尽管他们的能动性受到限制,但为了协商他们的持续生存,他们似乎通过利用他们的性吸引力或能力以及对主观上更强大的男性“伴侣”的保护来获得替代的物质资本和女性化(通常是性化的)资本。我们认为,受害者获得社会资本积累的传统机制可能会被多个性别劣势站点所排除,这些站点串通使受害者处于从属和被剥削的地位。然而,尽管他们的能动性受到限制,但为了协商他们的持续生存,他们似乎通过利用他们的性吸引力或能力以及对主观上更强大的男性“伴侣”的保护来获得替代的物质资本和女性化(通常是性化的)资本。我们认为,受害者获得社会资本积累的传统机制可能会被多个性别劣势站点所排除,这些站点串通使受害者处于从属和被剥削的地位。然而,尽管他们的能动性受到限制,但为了协商他们的持续生存,他们似乎通过利用他们的性吸引力或能力以及对主观上更强大的男性“伴侣”的保护来获得替代的物质资本和女性化(通常是性化的)资本。
