Abstract: This article introduces a special issue on Contested Geographies of Trafficking Borders. This collection broadens the understanding of trafficking borders by examining their materialisation, impacts, and contestation across different spaces and times. Expanding this notion of Trafficking Borders, the articles in this issue explore key questions: Where are trafficking borders found, and how do they manifest? Who creates these borders, and what are their motivations? How do those targeted by trafficking discourse resist them? How can researchers effectively study trafficking borders? Together, these contributions establish a critical agenda for contesting the geographies of trafficking borders.
