Abstract:

Is the Nordic model of combating the trafficking of women for sexual purposes to be followed by all member states of the eu? At the moment, the member states still differ considerably in their legislative approaches towards prostitution and the extent to which this is linked to the combat against sex trafficking. In this article the differences between the Nordic and the legalisation model as well as their effects on forced prostitution, human trafficking and women’s right to self-determination will be a central focus. The authors will discuss and compare the approaches and effects as found in Sweden and the Netherlands. By this comparison they will establish whether the Nordic model indeed should be endorsed.

Abstract:

The relationship between prostitution, modern slavery and human trafficking is much debated in the academic literature. By contrast, discussion of children’s involvement in prostitution as a form of modern slavery and human trafficking constitutes a silent consensus. Drawing on the findings of a participatory study with girls and young women in Malawi, we prize open that consensus, illuminating the poverty of contemporary discourses that link children’s involvement in prostitution with modern slavery and human trafficking, and identifying a series of tensions that confound the development of conceptual clarity. We develop our argument by exploring the potential of the capability approach, rooted in principles of social justice and human rights, to offer an alternative understanding of children’s engagement and ongoing involvement in prostitution, and a critical lens through which to reframe the relationship between children, prostitution, modern slavery and human trafficking.

Abstract:

This paper presents a model-based exploration and policy analysis related to prostitution and prostitution-related human trafficking. After a brief introduction to prostitution and prostitution-related human trafficking, the paper zooms in on the Dutch situation. A System Dynamics simulation model related to the Dutch situation developed to explore and provide policy insights is subsequently presented. Using the simulation model, policies are first of all tested, and preliminary conclusions are drawn. These preliminary conclusions are further tested under deep uncertainty, using variants of the simulation models. The final conclusions are that supply side measures alone are counter-productive and that demand side measures are necessary but insufficient to solve prostitution-related human trafficking.

Abstract:

This study surveyed 135 individuals, of which 68 were native speakers of English and 67 were native speakers of Thai. Respondents answered questions on issues related to human trafficking, its causes, and potential solutions. Statistical tests showed significant variance in opinions between language and other groups regarding factors associated with trafficking, and regarding the potential impacts of legalization of prostitution. Thai responses reflected collectivist cultural perceptions while English responses reflected more individualistic views. Males and English speakers were most likely to think legalized prostitution would lead to a reduction in human trafficking while females and Thais were most likely to believe legalized prostitution would increase trafficking. Responses to an open-ended question showed participants felt similarly about potential remedies for human trafficking, including information and awareness campaigns, interaction between civilians and police, increased penalties for offenders, and reduction in macro-environmental variables such as poverty.

Abstract:

This article explores arguments about the legalization of prostitution and how they impact human trafficking. One argument holds that prostitution is a form of sexual liberation, expression, and women’s agency. The counterargument views prostitution as a form of violence against women and maintains that, where prostitution is legal, human trafficking will increase to meet the open demand for sex. These arguments, however, do not account for variations in cultural beliefs and traditions, gender inequality, or the impact of the formation of a global society. The complementary theoretical frames of gender inequality and the formation of a global society are viewed through a global criminal justice lens. Through this framework, this article discusses the prostitution and human trafficking laws of the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States, which have varying stances on the legalization of prostitution, and how their laws create challenges for law enforcement. Without consideration for complementary theoretical frames, differing laws among jurisdictions, and challenges for law enforcement, problems such as overgeneralization, faulty assumptions, and passing ineffective or shortsighted laws will fuel the debate on the legalization of prostitution and, in turn, inhibit progress in efforts to combat human trafficking.

Abstract:

On 1 October 2000, the Netherlands became the first European country to legalize prostitution as a profession, with its rights and duties. On the other hand, this new Dutch law excluded those sex workers, who come from outside the EU. The majority of women working in the sex industry, who are considered illegal migrants in the Netherlands, had two choices: either leaving the country or disappearing into the illegal criminal circuit. For law enforcement and assistant services, it became extremely difficult to control the sector. In this paper, the consequences of the 'Brothel Law' are presented. What happens with illegal non-European sex workers in the Netherlands, how the problem of human trafficking is constructed in Dutch media and combated in the country, what could be learned from the 'Dutch case'? The paper aims to answer these questions and contribute to the general study on human trafficking and voluntary prostitution in Europe.

Abstract:

Human trafficking is a pernicious new variation on the ancient theme of slavery and trading in human flesh. It is considered a serious organised crime against humanity, reduces their sense of worth and punctures their ego and sense of dignity. Human trafficking is a transnational crime, a global problem that targets vulnerable individuals and affects every country. Its expansion depends on there being source countries with people demanding better economic living conditions, and destination countries with people or industries demanding cheap labour or cheap prostitution to enlarge their profits. The Protocol to Prevent Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children by United Nations marks the international community's cumulative efforts to deal with this transnational organised crime. The Trafficking Protocol was entered into force on 2003. It has been signed by 117 countries and ratified by 159 parties. This article focuses on the ambiguity of definition of human trafficking given by UNO protocol.

Abstract:

Janie Chuang discusses important shifts in the way that American policy makers and activists have defined and fought human trafficking. As she shows, key aspects of the 2000 UN Protocol’s definition of trafficking have been whiplashed by changing political winds emanating from the Bush and Obama administrations. In the Bush years, a strange bedfellows network of feminists, evangelicals, and neo-conservatives directed American trafficking policy primarily toward sexual exploitation, pushing for prohibitions not only on forced but also on voluntary prostitution. Other types of trafficking were neglected. The Obama administration and its own set of civil society associates gusted other ways. Among other moves, it reduced the focus on sex, dropped the view that voluntary prostitution constituted trafficking, enlarged the trafficking concept to include all forced labor (whether or not involving movement), and rebranded the expansive new notion as slavery.

Abstract:

In Denmark, human trafficking has emerged as a central issue within the policy field of prostitution during the last decade. Taking a Foucauldian approach from a historical perspective, understanding the policy field of prostitution as a discursive terrain, the article analyses the thinking that lies behind policies on prostitution by identifying ruptures and discursive struggles which lead to transformations of the policy field. In particular, this article investigates how the problematization of human trafficking has created space for a feminist discourse breakthrough within the policy field of prostitution during the last decade. Asking how/where this ‘problem’ has been produced, what ways of speaking are permissible, and what is silenced, the article discusses limitations and possibilities within this policy field.

Abstract:

The issues of human trafficking and human security have been inadequately addressed in the study of political economy. How and whose human security could be assessed when considering political economy of human trafficking? This paper investigates this question, especially how contemporary globalization causes human exploitation that exacerbates human insecurity. Trafficking is a global phenomenon, the origin of which could be found in the global capitalist system. This paper examines human trafficking against the backdrop of this system that is enhanced by neoliberal globalization. While debate on prostitution, migration, criminal approach, and human rights has been at the center of anti-trafficking literature and policy initiatives in Asia, the paper argues that human trafficking is the result of human insecurity and vice versa, which could be better explained through global political economy, particularly in Japan.

Abstract:

Marriage for some people is a sacred thing: it is a part of the important forms of worship of God. The sacredness, nevertheless, to some extent disappears when the marriage mainly becomes a trap that concludes with prostitution and slavery. This article examines mail-order bride as a form of human trafficking. Women in this kind of trafficking are primarily trafficked for prostitution industries. The mail,order bride arrangements occur in Indonesia and, also, in many countries in South Asia and Southeast Asia, including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Vietnam, and Malaysia. This form of trafficking is more difficult to deal with because of its hidden schema: marriage is commonly considered an individual privacy wherein outsiders cannot easily interfere.

This article examines the complex arrangements within which women working in prostitution in South Africa find themselves, and documents their resilience in a hazardous work environment. Findings are drawn from a survey and in-depth interviews with sex workers in Cape Town that investigated the nature and extent of human trafficking in the sex industry, and from a separate survey of sex workers during the World Cup in South Africa in 2010. The findings provide the basis for a critique of Western rescue missions and the larger antitrafficking movement.

Abstract:

This study aims to systematically identify and review studies on anti-human trafficking campaigns published in peer-reviewed journals to determine the extent to which such campaigns have been critically and rigorously evaluated so as to guide future policies and practice in this area and to identify the main characteristics, problems, and challenges associated with the campaigns in the identified studies. This systematic literature review identified 16 studies that have assessed anti-human trafficking campaigns but found that none of these included outcome, process, or impact evaluations. As identified in our study, anti-human trafficking campaigns tend to rely on advertising techniques to target vulnerable groups and the wider public, with the primary aim of informing and educating. Further, a thematic analysis of the studies identified problems in eight areas that require attention in the future development of anti-human trafficking campaigns: stereotyping, compounding human trafficking with migration, conflating prostitution with human trafficking, sexualization/erotization of women, victimization, role of anti-human trafficking organizations, data shortcomings, and oversimplification of human trafficking. Studies presenting the results of evaluations of social marketing anti-human trafficking campaigns are urgently needed to show which social marketing tools work and to provide an evidence base for future campaigns.

Abstract:

Men’s struggle for survival has never been so intense, and they have been able to save themselves from the physical pain inflicted by fatal war weapons. However, the invasion on men’s dignity in different forms including organ smuggling, experimental dummy, slavery, forced prostitution, etc. has followed an unprecedented rate in terms of inflicting misery and suffering millions of lives across the universe in the contemporary world. Most probably, “Right to Dignified Life” could be considered the most salient objective of Human Rights Principle. It is also a justified fact that the tragic misery of contemporary man has to do with obliteration of the same fundamental principle underpinning Human Rights. More importantly, it is not merely sufficient for a man to survive. Man requires self-dignity, voice and remedies for achieving happiness and welfare, otherwise he/she is nothing but a mere physical existence. The contemporary man that has undergone such huge amount of human tragedies and sufferings increasingly loses its control over its own body, work and movement, and many accede to the fact that the most obvious reason is human trafficking.

Human trafficking is a global phenomenon that affects people of all ages, races, gender and ethnicities. Bride trafficking is one of the worst forms of human trafficking. Many other social evils such as child marriage, domestic violence, bonded labour and prostitution are linked to bride trafficking. Bride trafficking is rampant in India since eons. Hence, there is a need to understand the underlying causes, consequences, effects and repercussions. This article explores the phenomena of bride trafficking within the larger framework of human trafficking and the available legal provisions to address it.

Abstract:

While human trafficking occupies a prominent place on the global policy agenda, many aspects of this phenomenon remain empirically underdeveloped. We examine the role of state capacity in these illicit supply chains, positing that trafficking flows may persist because even well-intentioned states might lack the requisite capacity to take effective action. Along those lines, we assess the impact of two facets of state capacity, bureaucratic efficacy and fiscal capacity, upon the probability of a country being a source or destination for the two types of human trafficking, forced labor and prostitution. We find that state capacity, particularly fiscal capacity, is significantly related to reduced labor and sex trafficking at both the source and destination levels.

Abstract:

Human trafficking for purposes of sexual and other forms of slavery continues to pose a major threat to the human rights and human dignity of many persons. This is particularly the case for young women from Eastern European nations. Not to be confused with human smuggling and undocumented immigration, human trafficking usually aims at exploitation, often through slavery in the form of un-oder underpaid domestic work or forced prostitution. The European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) as well as jus cogens outlaw slavery. In this article it is shown by the authors that human trafficking - although not explicitly dealt with in the ECHR - is also prohibited if it aims at creating or maintaining a situation of slavery. Indeed, it is then prohibited by jus cogens and states have a positive obligation to combat human trafficking effectively. Many states fail to do so, showing that this problem is one of law enforcement rather than of creating effective legal norms since those already exist.

Abstract:

The research focuses on the characteristic, knowledge, and experiences of buyers of sex, focusing on human trafficking and exploitation. Recognising that those trafficked for sexual exploitation are often exploited in the commercial sex industry, the research adopts an understanding of ‘demand’ in the context of human trafficking which includes demand for women in prostitution. In order to study buyers, a mixture of quantitative and qualitative research tools was used, including online questionnaires and face-to-face interviews. Through these methods, a total of 763 buyers engaged with the research, across four EU Member States (Ireland, Finland, Bulgaria and Lithuania). A number of important findings emerged in the research. Buyers interviewed were seen to have a complex view of sellers. They overwhelmingly viewed the sale of sex as a transaction between two consenting adults, but also saw sellers as different from other women. At the same time, although up to a third of buyers had witnessed or suspected exploitation, a gap emerged with regard to those who had reported such fears. Finally, irrespective of their knowledge of human trafficking, or measures targeting those who knowingly purchase sex from trafficked victims, buyers rarely considered trafficking when purchasing sex.Keywords: human trafficking; sexual exploitation; prostitution; demand; buyers

Abstract:

The article analyzes the legal aspects of prostitution prevention and proposes an approach to legal change and criminalization of human trafficking, child and involuntary prostitution as well as the possibility of accepting the liberal alternative related to the regularization of voluntary provision of sexual services. The model of prostitution as a form of exploitation and violence has been adopted, which forces public authorities to protect victims of sexual abuse. The main categories of the prevention system determine the hierarchical subordination of the structural prostitution organization as well as the role of organized crime in legalizing the business.

Nevertheless, mysterious madam and voodoo victimisation are trafficking twin terror and two critical exploitative phenomena that had persisted and sustained international prostitution.

Abstract:

Trafficking in women and children is a form of slavery. Legal laws highly respect human rights and clearly prohibit human trafficking. This trafficking, nevertheless, is mushrooming nowadays, and is like a chain that has no edge. Islam, which comes as a mercy for all, fully appreciates children's and women's rights. Historically, the coming of Islam has elevated the status of women. The Prophet Muhammad was a hero in combating woman trafficking, as it brought about sexual exploitation and prostitution. Trafficking places women as its object and, therefore, the modem society has to leave it. On top of that, the Qur'an and Hadith definitely ban it

Abstract:

This text* is not a theoretical one; it is a result of four and a half years of serving aid to women, girls and boys in prostitution on the streets of Tel Aviv. The effort here is to connect the dots between human trafficking, prostitution and porno-graphy, and see how they are steeped in gender inequality and common tolerant notions that need deconstruction. The article is not an indictment but an invitation to take action, and especially looks at how pornography and prostitution construct sexuality, kill imagination and perpetuate abuse.

Abstract:

Human trafficking is one of activities that constitute serious violence against human rights, particularly the rights of women and children trafficked. In fact, trafficking has become a universal phenomenon and is considered the enemy of all countries in the world. In Indonesia, women and children are trafficked from one country to another and within the country itself. They are trafficked for domestic work, waiters, entertainers, booked brides, beggars or prostitution. Law enforcement in both national and international levels has been conducted. The laws, nevertheless, cannot effectively overcome the problem of trafficking in women and children

Abstract:

A joint Finnish—Swedish—Estonian study, completed in 2008, analysed the connections between human trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation and organized crime. This article deals with prostitution-related human trafficking and organized procuring in Finland in the 21st century. Finland is studied as a country of destination where foreign women, mainly from the adjacent eastern and southern regions, are brought to sell sexual services. The article concentrates on the perpetrators, their modi operandi and the structure of the criminal organizations. In particular, the control measures that are imposed on the procured women are examined; such measures comprise different sets of rules, violence and the threat of violence, and the so-called debt bondage.

Abstract:

Human trafficking is a major social justice issue, with sex trafficking the most documented form. It depends on vulnerable and oppressed women who are bartered as commodities in an extremely profitable global market. Given their victimization, the loss of dignity, and the complete violation of the human rights of these victims, sex trafficking has major implications for the social work profession. Using a case study approach, this article explores sex trafficking policy and its implementation in Cyprus, a country that has been named a destination country for trafficking victims. Using Bronfenbrenner’s ecological model, the factors impacting policy, its implementation, and social work involvement are explored.

Abstract:

This paper relies upon the ‘what’s the problem represented to be?’ approach to policy analysis to interrogate key representations of human trafficking implicit in the UK government’s anti-trafficking policy. It identifies six policy vectors, or representations, of human trafficking embedded within the policy, including organized crime, ‘illegal’ immigration, and victim assistance as three primary vectors; sexual exploitation/prostitution, poverty in countries of victims’ origin, and isolated instances of labour law infringements as three secondary vectors. In addition, a series of assumptions, which underlie the current interpretation of trafficking, are also identified. By exploring what the problem of human trafficking is represented to be, the paper also provides an insight into what remains obscured within the context of the dominant policy frameworks. In doing so, it highlights the role of state-capital entanglements in normalizing exploitation of trafficked, smuggled and ‘offshored’ labour, and critiques the UK’s anti-trafficking policy for manufacturing doubt as to the structural causes of human trafficking within the context of neoliberalism.

Abstract:

Perdagangan manusia sudah merajalela ada semenjak lama. Namun, pola dan modus operandi berbeda-beda tergantung waktu dan tempat eksekusi praktik trafficking berjalan. Di Provinsi Jambi, perdagangan orang mengalami peningkatan dari waktu ke waktu. Pada saat masih marak lokalisasi prostitusi Payosigadung, para korban ditempatkan dan dilokalisasikan tetapi, setelah penutupan lokalisasi kecenderungan perdagangan orang melalui Online dan ditempatkan di salon-salon kecantikan yang menyediakan layanan plus-plus. Paper ini menunjukkan terdapat relasi kuasa yang signifikan antara pelaku dan korban terutama pada konsep kuasa pada perdagangan dalam jual beli. Relasi kuasa ini diikat sedemikian rupa sehingga korban tidak bisa menolak ketika dihadapkan pada pilihan untuk mengorbankan diri sebagai pemuas nafsu laki-laki hidung belang. Pembahasan Paper ini akan menjabarkan tiga hal penting dalam Human Trafficking. Hal-hal penting tersebut adalah Masalah ketimpangan ekonomi pada pelaku dan korban dari trafficking, relasi patriarki dalam hubungan sosial masyarakat dalam praktik trafficking, dan dominasi seksualitas yang tinggi pada hubungan patron-klien trafficking. Bentuk aktivitas trafficking bisa berjalan mulus karena tiga hal tersebut saling berkelindan.[Human trafficking has been rampant for a long time. However, the patterns and modus operandi vary depending on the time and place where the trafficking practice is being executed. In Jambi Province, trafficking in persons has increased from time to time. When the Payosigadung prostitution localization was still rife, the victims were placed and localized, however the closure of the localization of the tendency of trafficking in persons online and put in beauty salons that provide plus-plus services. This paper shows a significant power relationship between the perpetrator and the victim, especially in the concept of power in trade in buying and selling. This power relation is tied in such a way that the victim cannot refuse when faced with the choice to sacrifice herself as the satisfaction of the male masher. Discussion This paper will describe three essential things in Human Trafficking. These essential things are economic inequality among traffickers and victims of trafficking, patriarchal relations in community social relations in trafficking practices, and the high dominance of sexuality in trafficking patron-client relationships. The form of trafficking activity can run smoothly because these three things are intertwined.]

Abstract:

Asia is known as a continent where human trafficking is particularly prevalent. Departing from the bulk of research on trafficking in Asia that focuses on illegal migration and prostitution, this article examines the embeddedness of human trafficking in legal temporary migration flows. This analysis uses survey and interview data to document the experiences of Vietnamese migrants who worked in East Asian countries. It identifies a continuum of trafficking, abuse, exploitation, and forced labor, and examines how exploitation begins at the recruitment stage with the creation of bonded labor. Guest-worker programs in destination countries put migrants in particularly precarious situations, which do, in some cases, qualify as trafficking. I argue that temporary migration programs may create the conditions that lead to extreme forms of exploitation among many legal migrant workers in the region.

Abstract: This article discusses about advocacy against child prostitution in Dolly-Surabaya. Child prostitution is an act that violates the fundamental rights of the children from any kind of exploitation activities. The people who cause prostitution are to be punished in accordance with the applied regulations. Advocacy on child prostitution in Dolly is where the act of prostitution is not getting any penalties or sanctions because the child only has an obligatory capability and not an act capability. The parties that led to the child victims of prostitution should be punished by the assumption that they have done fraud and coercion. Moreover, child prostitution is a form of human trafficking. The advocacy dedicated to child as the victim of prostitution is: first, litigation advocacy with the target of those children’s fundamental rights which have been violated by others can be restored; second, budgetary advocacy with the goal of keeping the budget managed by the government can be allocated appropriately to children who become the victim of prostitution; and third, policy advocacy with the aim of protecting the fundamental rights and improving the welfare of the children who become the victim of prostitution, both of morally and materially.Keywords: Advocacy, child prostitution, Dolly localization

Abstract:

The current discourses on human trafficking in Canada do not take into account domestic trafficking, especially of Aboriginal girls. Notwithstanding the alarmingly high number of missing, murdered and sexually exploited Aboriginal girls, the issue continues to be portrayed more as a problem of prostitution than of sexual exploitation or domestic trafficking. The focus of this study is to examine the issues in sexual exploitation of Aboriginal girls, as identified by the grass root agencies, and to contextualize them within the trafficking framework with the purpose of distinguishing sexual exploitation from sex work. In doing so, the paper will outline root causes that make Aboriginal girls vulnerable to domestic trafficking as well as draw implications for policy analysis.

Abstract:

Abstract The aim of this article is to contrast prominent discourses on prostitution and human trafficking to the context of prostitution in Brazil and local feminist discourses on this matter, understanding their contradictions and limitations. I look at Brazilian transgender prostitutes’ experiences to address an agency-related question that underlies feminist theorizations of prostitution: can prostitution be freely chosen? Is it necessarily exploitative? My argument is that discourses on sex work, departing from sex trafficking debates, are heavily engaged in a heteronormative logic that might be unable to approach the complexity and ambiguity of experiences of transgender prostitutes and, therefore, cannot theorize their possibilities of agency. To do so, I will conduct a critique of the naturalization of gender norms that hinders an understanding of experiences that exceed the binary ‘prostitute versus victim.’ I argue how both an abolitionist as well as a legalising solution to the issues involved in the sex market, when relying on the state as the guarantor of rights to sex workers, cannot account for the complexities of a context such as the Brazilian one, in which specific conceptions of citizenship permit violence against sexually and racially marked groups to occur on such a large scale.

Abstract:

This article analyses the controversy on the topics of prostitution and human trafficking online by way of researching the structure and discourses of non-commercial websites. Previous research (Agustín, 2005; Doezema, 2000; Freedman, 2003; Kelly, 2005) has shown that general-public, media and theoretical discussions tend to dichotomize the two phenomena, reconfirming the dividing lines between them. Realities are much more complex, pointing to the inadequacy of the division and to the interchangeable relations between the phenomena that are manifested at the intersection of economic, social and political developments determined by gender, ethnicity and class inequality (Pajnik, 2008, 2010). We explore in this article whether online discourses and debates reinforce the divide or, alternatively, provide new approaches to treating prostitution and trafficking as interrelated phenomena, because they are, increasingly, becoming migration and labour (economic and social) issues in the wider sense.

Abstract:

<p class="Default">Trafficking in human is a serious crime and a grave violation of human rights. Trafficking is carried out for different reasons, such as sexual slavery, forced labour, commercial prostitution, organ harvesting amongst others. It has become a great concern in Nigeria and Edo state in particular as a result of the notorious reputation for being one of the leading countries of Africa in human trafficking and there have been several researches carried out to phantom the propelling rationale for the increasing incidence of trafficking especially in women in Edo state. The paper examined the impact of health education in curbing women trafficking in Edo state. The writer discussed the following; what is trafficking in women, prevalence, causes, contributing factors, effects and the objectives of Health Education. It was discovered that the objective of Health Education as stated by Parmars, (2007) as informing the people, motivation of the people and guidance of the people can have positive and great impact in curbing women trafficking. Conclusions were drawn from other areas and recommendations were made.</p>
