Abstract
Description
Because of the very widespread abhorrence of child pornography and, in the great majority of countries, because of the criminal nature of every element in the cycle of its production, distribution, exchange and possession, there remains comparatively little reliable published data about many keys aspects of this vile trade. Such hard information as does exist about the scale and nature of the problem generally has come to light only following police action and subsequent prosecutions. I have brought together as much of this published hard data as I could locate but inevitably it will show a bias towards those countries, generally the industrialised countries, where police action has been more widely publicised and where researchers have been able to gain access to information from police, court or other data sources.
