Abstract
This essay challenges the conventional wisdom that prohibitions against government- condoned child-sex trafficking have attained non-derogable, peremptory status under international law and establishes that boy sex slavery has evolved into a constitutive and central feature of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (Afghanistan) because of a customary practice commonly referred to as, "bacha bazi."
