	E/CN.4/Sub.2/1998/13 - Report of the Special Rapporteur on systematic rape,
		The use of sexual slavery and sexual violence as tactics and weapons of war is an all too common yet often overlooked atrocity that demands consistent and committed action on the part of the global community.
		This status may be particularly useful in prosecuting individual cases of sexual slavery committed during armed conflict, as the prosecution in such a case need not establish the existence of State involvement or acquiescence, the existence of a widespread or systematic pattern of abuse, or any nexus between the crime and an armed conflict.
		In cases involving claims of sexual slavery or sexual violence, local prosecutions may be more effective in preventing future violations, while facilitating the return of victims to their pre-war communities by removing some of the stigma that may often be attached, however improperly, to victims of sexual violence.

	"we'll kill you if you cry"
		Sexual violence includes rape and attempted rape, and such acts as forcing a person to strip naked in public, forcing two victims to perform sexual acts on one another or harm one another in a sexual manner, mutilating a person's genitals or a woman's breasts, and sexual slavery.
		The appeals chamber rejected the "resistance" requirement argued by the appellants as it is justified neither in law or fact, and stated that the use of force in itself is not a necessary element of rape.
		Sexual slavery, defined by the 1926 Slavery Convention and the 1953 Protocol amending the same convention, refers to "[t]he status or condition of a person over whom any or all of the powers attaching to the right of ownership are exercised, including sexual access through rape or other forms of sexual violence."

	Japan: Still Waiting After 60 years: Justice for Survivors of Japan's Military Sexual Slavery System - Amnesty ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Perhaps the most compelling example of the crime of sexual slavery and the denial of justice to victims was the system of institutionalized sexual slavery used by the Japanese Imperial Army before and during World War II and subsequent denials of responsibility for the system by the Japanese government.
		For decades the truth about the sexual slavery system remained hidden; much information detailing the exact number of "comfort stations" and their location, as well as other information pointing to the direct involvement of the wartime government in the establishment of the system was reportedly burnt in the immediate aftermath of the war.
		The violations of sexual and reproductive rights inherent in the system of sexual slavery endured by the comfort women were compounded on an ongoing basis by these long lasting impacts on their sexual and reproductive lives.

	International Sexual Slavery
		Sexual slavery can be particularly fatal today due to the global epidemic of AIDS, as these enslaved women are forced to have unprotected sex with a large number of men every day.
		Women who become the victims of international sexual slavery are procured by kidnapping, purchase, or with fraudulent inducements for jobs and a better life.
		Since international sexual slavery involves the trans-national traffic of women, law enforcement from one single country cannot effectively deal with organized crime that is linked internationally.

		With these definitions in mind, it is imperative that people alter their definitions and context of slavery from something that occurred long ago to the reality that slavery, in the form of human trafficking and sexual slavery, continues to entrap, enslave and dehumanize women and children.
		The social acceptability of some forms of sexual exploitation coupled with the increased mobility of people has fostered a subculture in which sexual slavery, both in its older forms of brothels and prostitution and its newer forms of sex tourism and mail-order brides, can thrive and flourish.
		Its purpose is to combat the modern form of slavery known as human trafficking by protecting the victims — mainly women and children, by ensuring punishment of their perpetrators.

	Sierra Leone: Sexual Violence Widespread in War (Human Rights Watch Press release, New York, January 16, 2003)
		Throughout the armed conflict in Sierra Leone from 1991 to 2001, thousands of women and girls of all ages, ethnic groups, and socioeconomic classes were subjected to widespread and systematic sexual violence, including individual and gang rape, and rape with objects such as weapons, firewood, umbrellas and pestles.
		These crimes of sexual violence were generally characterized by extraordinary brutality and frequently preceded or followed by other egregious human rights abuses against the victim, her family and her community.
		The lack of attention to conflict-related sexual violence means that few assistance programs have been established for women and girls who were subjected to sexual violence, including sexual slavery.

	Intersections Review: Japan's Comfort Women: Sexual Slavery and Prostitution During World War II and the US Occupation
		In juxtaposing the 'sexual ideologies' of Japan and the Allied nations in this manner, Tanaka underscores that he is not attempting to 'mitigate or rationalize the crimes that Japanese men committed during the war by referring to similar or related crimes committed by the Allied soldiers immediately after the war' (p.
		The Allied nations' endeavours to combat the spread of venereal disease, their support of the enticement of impoverished women into prostitution and the supervision of brothels for military use during the war and the Occupation, while morally reprehensible, cannot be accorded the same level of criminality as the 'comfort' women system.
		The equation of the Allied nations and Japan's sexual ideologies predisposes this volume to the impression that it is partially an apologia for the 'comfort' women system.

	SSRN-Slavery and the Roots of Sexual Harassment by Adrienne Davis
		It designates slavery a sexual economy to foreground slavery's gender hierarchies and mechanisms of subordination as well as to show how slavery offered early illustrations of the social construction and fluidity of gender and the false dichotomy between public and private relations.
		Taking those insights to their logical conclusion, this essay frames enslaved women's sexual coercion through their roles as captive workers to cast the institution of slavery in a new light: as an early and particularly virulent strain of institutionalized sexual harassment.
		Conceiving slavery as sexual harassment sheds light on how slave law was labor law, plantations were workplaces, and enslaved women's resistance constituted gender activism.

		However, for the 'comfort women,' civilians forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military between 1932 and 1945, there has been no escape from the war and no answer for its harm.
		Furthermore, as patterns of systematic rape and sexual violence continue today in places of armed conflict such as Sudan, Congo, and Iraq, the importance of recognizing the human rights atrocity committed against women during WWII is paramount.
