Julie Murphy Erfani is an associate professor and the director of ASU's master's program in Social Justice and Human Rights. Her publications and research have previously focused on violence and human rights abuses in the U.S.-Mexico drug war and in Mexico-U.S.relations in general. Her newest interests focus on asylum seekers and sex-trafficked migrants crossing into the European Union via Greece and Italy. Since 2016, she is director of an annual intensive field experience allowing students to assist and engage directly with forced migrants from Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq as they await asylum application processing for residence in the EU. Murphy Erfani is an international political economist interested in corporate, commercial and state crime, the right to have rights of asylum seekers and trafficked people, and human rights responses to forced migrants and sex-trafficked people.
