Abstract

Through examining the reasons for transnational migration and the political standpoints toward such transnational migration at global and transnational links, this paper argues that the issue of human trafficking of North Korean women in China stems from global geopolitical inequalities, state dominations, gender hierarchy, and border control. This paper demonstrates that the political, economic, and social inequality implicit in national and global nexus impacts North Korean women in detrimental ways that subject them to exploitations, oppression, and social injustice.
