Exploitation

A specific problem that faces that criminal justice system is child exploitation in the age of technology. Child exploitation is a crime that has existed for millennia, but since technology has developed, the crime has grown exponentially. Traditionally a predator would have to target a family member or someone in the community as their pool of targets was relatively limited. However, the advancement of technology has made it easier for predators to not only collect and share paraphernalia, but…

I agree the exploitation is very similar to slavery and is an issue. Again, when I say progress I don’t mean success. Of course it is abhorrent that exploitation occurs and that it is largely outsourced and hidden but it seems to me still progress that slavery used to be legal and now at the very least people have to hide it. Outlawing slavery must have been the necessary first step to undermining that kind of exploitation. Progress is not success. I am a bit confused. You said that the…

the Afghan people. This has taken a very negative toll on all Afghan people, but none have been more negatively impacted than the women of Afghanistan. Child exploitation, Poverty, War and Low access to Health/Social services have been main contributions to their turmoil and what I will be discussing today. In Afghanistan Child exploitation is a common occurrence due to generations of male dominance, traditions such as ‘baad’ and the right to an education being denied to them. Women are…

Child sexual exploitation is a form of sexual abuse usually by males against young girls in exchange for money. It may involve forcible sex, rape, sodomy and molestation, and often result in cruel or harmful treatment (starvation and physical abuse) of the child. According to stats found at dosomething.org, the average age a teen enters the sex trade, in the United States, is 12 to 14-year-old (9). Many victims are runaway girls who were sexually abused as children. These connections may begin…

he continues to oversee today. It’s fitting that both would go on to have prominent roles in horror considering the effect The Last House on the Left had on the genre. The film is regarded as one of the original films to give rise to the horror exploitation genre, as well as fright films. These two genres joined forces in the 1980s and helped launch the slasher film’s popularity, a genre that both Craven and Cunningham would find their success in (A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th,…

Battling Child Exploitation with digital forensics is a well written article discussing the outrageous growth of child sex trafficking due to the growth of technology and the easy access to speedy communication around the world. The increase in this category of crimes is in a 1,000-percent increase since 2004. Along with that statistic, “The National Consumers League states 56 percent of children between the ages of eight and twelve have a cellphone, with the average age of receiving a first…

(1880-1920) provided some Americans economic wealth and social power. With the rise of big businesses (steel, oil, railroads, etc.) and industrial giants, however, many issues arose as well such as political corruption in the political machines and labor exploitation in the new companies. A broader gap among the wealthy and the poor, due to the system of monopolies and trusts (which gave too much power to only certain companies who could acquire it), was established and consequently, a separate…

well as the exploitation of the children. Many wonder if Mann acknowledged the risk she was putting on the children when she released the images. This leads to the idea that if the children, aged twelve, ten, and seven years old, could freely give their consent for the images to be published. I believe that Sally Mann knowingly put her children at risk by releasing the images. This is believed because she photographed her children’s nudity. To some, this can be considered an exploitation of…

The violence of the films Funny Games and Cannibal Holocaust is perpetrated by human beings. In Funny Games, cruelty is dealt with a heavy but nonchalant hand by highly creepy, unnaturally polite and detached young men who repeatedly call out the audience on their nature and motivations. By asking the audience if we are sated, our thin immersion within the film is broken and we find ourselves suddenly disconnected and forced into introspection. Why are we watching this? Is this entertaining?…

Horror has many sub-genres, while Jaume Collet-Serra’s House of Wax (2005) can be called a horror film, it may easily be classified as a slasher film. Slasher films typically revolve around a twisted serial killer molded by adversity faced throughout life. They usually target young, attractive adults in desolate areas. Throughout the movie, Jaume Coller-Serra effectively uses these common characteristics in his film along with a few others. After 1978 people began to view horror films…
