It establishes the conditions of trafficking that leave foreign entertainers in a position of debt bondage and indenture vis-à-vis middleman brokers. Then, it shows how laws established to protect entertainers in the process of migration in fact make prospective migrants vulnerable to trafficking. This is because such protective laws, which are espoused by the culture of benevolent paternalism that surrounds the migration of women in Asia and the rest of the world, preclude the independent migration of entertainers.}, pages = {1--17}, title = {Benevolent Paternalism and Migrant Women : The Case of Migrant Filipina Entertainers in Japan}, volume = {10}, year = {2007} }
