Traffic of Human Beings, a Reality of the World Contemporary - A Phenomenon with Multiple Determinants

Abstract

Human trafficking means recruiting, transporting, transferring, sheltering or receiving
people by threat of force or by using force or other forms of coercion, kidnapping, fraud, deceit, abuse
of power or vulnerability or by offering or accepting payments. or useful for obtaining the consent of
a person who has control over another person for the purpose of exploitation. Exploitation will
include, at a minimum, the exploitation of prostitution of others or other forms of sexual exploitation,
forced labor or services, slavery or slavery-like practices, servitude or organ removal. In recent years,
more and more, the phenomenon of human trafficking has been defined through the perspective of
illegal migration. Within the limits of this method, the prevention of human trafficking implies the
prevention of the exit / entry, respectively, of the illegal stay of the persons in a country. At the same
time, when the trafficking of human beings takes place within the boundaries of the same state, this
method exhausts all its justifications, in this context the strategy to combat human trafficking
becomes a fight against illegal migration.
