...Human trafficking is known as an illegal trade of human beings for use of sexual exploitation, forced labor, or slavery. The mystery remains regarding when human trafficking originated. Many believe the beginning took place with slave trade and others believe forced labor of children during the 1700s. In more depth human trafficking included the use of drugs and unwanted sex of girls and women. Human trafficking is known to be brutal and thanks to global awareness movements are ongoing and aggressive in setting protocols to prevent Transnational Organized Crime of Human Trafficking. The first movements began in 1807 with the British making a law against Transatlantic Slave Trade. The United States began their movement in 1820 by making slave trade illegal and punishable by death. The focus around on women and children was in 1904, which incorporated an international agreement to prohibit the “white slave trade.” The fight against human trafficking did not end there. One movement included 13 countries consented to illegalizing the form of trafficking to the International Convention for the Suppression of White Slave Trade. The League of Nations made a movement in 1921 to change the white slavery to traffic of women and children. The reason for this movement was to incorporate victims all of races including male children. Studies became an important factor in determining the nature of human trafficking and their victims and how they differ from other countries. Today human...

...By: Crystal Busscher 5th hour Sex Slaves The Burmese government has committed serious abuses and blocked humanitarian aid to tens of thousands of displaced civilians since June 2011, in fighting in Burma's northern Kachin State, Human Rights Watch said. Some 75,000 ethnic Kachin displaced persons and refugees are in desperate need of food, medicine, and shelter, Human Rights Watch said. In Burma, the Burmese army have been attacking villages, razed homes, pillaged properties, and forcing the displacement of tens of thousands of people. The soldiers have threatened and also tortured civilians during interrogations and raped women. They also are forcing people even children as young as 14 years old to work in the mines. The Kachin civilians say that they are also forcing them to work on the front lines for the Burmese army, enduring torture, and being fired upon by the soldier. Human Rights Watch traces the women and girls' cross-border transport and their confinement in illegal brothels throughout Thailand where they are forced to work off their debt, often with 100 percent interest, through what amounts to sexual servitude. In addition to debt bondage, the women and girls face a wide range of abuses, including illegal confinement; forced labor; rape; physical abuse; exposure to HIV/AIDS; and, in some cases, murder. The Burmese women and girls work ten to eighteen hours a day, twenty-five days a month with anywhere from 5-15 clients a day. Health care and birth control...

The sufferers end devastated, dejected and defeated. Those victimised may never be able to live normal lives again especially from the physical, emotional and mental trauma. They live in constant fear and may up end being psychologically conceded.

We as a collective should create more awareness of human trafficking because it’s one of the most occurring/progressing crimes of today. We as a whole should consider looking more into it and how it contributes/effects so many. Firstly, why it is important and what is the reality of it. –What we don’t know about it and how it should more focused on in the media It has established itself as a 25 billion dollar industry which has its principal participants as financiers, unprincipled recruiters and unethical public officials. Slavery isnt been a problem that has been abolished, and it isn’t something that happens in undeveloped of backward countries either. It continues in the most developed countries in the world such as the U.S and UK As we grew up, we have been “taught” that we don't value one human life over another, yet, human trafficking in a constant...

Governments worldwide must create specialized agencies, victim relief units, and allocate more funds towards the understanding and prevention of this growing crime. Due to the complexity of human trafficking, non-traditional law enforcement must be used. As stated in several of the articles gathered, a growing need for information sharing between organizations has become necessary. With enhanced human trafficking policies and implementation; accurate crime statistics can be gathered, victims can be identified, perpetrators can be prosecuted, and organized crime patterns can be seen.

...ENGL107-1301B-11 American Intercontinental University Abstract Victims of human trafficking are being sold and degraded for little to nothing at all. This is known as modern day slavery and something needs to be done to stop this crime. Human trafficking is a clear violation of human rights is an increasing crime that seems to be getting worse. Many laws are being put in place to stop this crime from spreading at the rate that it is going. Human trafficking is the illegal trade of another human being. There are over 27 million people all over the world that are currently being forced into this form of slavery everyday with little to no way out. The problem in the United States is continually growing at a rapid rate (Safehorizon, 2013). As a transnational crime, human trafficking requires intense international co-operation to be limited and controlled. To pinpoint the problem to one particular region or nation would be to challenge any efforts to control it. Human trafficking is the modern day equivalent of slavery and must be recognized as such by the international community if this transnational crime is to be controlled and stopped. Many believe that human trafficking began in the 1800s, as blacks were forced to do unwanted gestures but people of all races and also children started to become victims of this heinous crime. Many laws have been put into place to stop the trade of humans over the years but there is still more that needs to be done. We have to raise awareness...

It is a growing problem because children, young women, and men are taken every day, and they are physically, emotionally, and sexually abused, sold for sex, and then used for profit.

The purpose of human trafficking is subjecting a person to involuntary slave-like practices, or forced labor. Power and abuse is the primary foundation with this issue.

...Human trafficking starts off with the promise of an opportunity for a better life for the individual being trafficked and their family that they are trying to provide for. Most victims that are trafficked include women and children, mostly from poverty stricken areas. Trafficking can begin with an online or newspaper ad for a business opportunity. Another way is through an acquaintance of a friend or family member who offers a job opportunity. People who fall victim to trafficking are promised a job opportunity that is false and then the individuals who have committed the trafficking scam, coercion, or threaten the individuals into an illegal game of trade. Sometimes those traffickers make up a bogus debt that must be re-paid and then coerce the victims into working for free in order to pay off the phony debt (Salett, 2011). It has increasingly shown that the traffickers are part of a worldwide ring of corruption and that there are members of law enforcement and corrupt government officials and agencies who are involved with the transportation of individuals. These same officials also assist with the process of keeping the prisoners enslaved from the initial contact to the point of sale (Salett, 2011). Once individuals are a part of a human trafficking ring, all identification and personal items are confiscated from them making these individuals harder to identify. There are more than 12,000 victims of human trafficking who are smuggled into the United States and sold into the...

...Name: Patrick Amara Essay #4: Research Paper Pro. Murray March 28, 2013 Human Trafficking INTRODUCTION The social issue of human trafficking has garnered the attention of the United Nations, as a report by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. A global problem exists reaching every developed, developing, and undeveloped country on the planet. The first ever global forum to fight human trafficking was held February 13-15, 2008 in Vienna. One of the major issues addressed was the lack of information and varied responses from countries and their agencies formed to combat the growing crime. In attendance were delegates from more than 100 countries, law enforcement teams, business leaders, legislators, and recognized experts on human trafficking (United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, UNODC, n.d). The Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, Antonio Maria Costa, described the problem as "a monster whose shape, size and ferocity we can only guess" (UNODC, n.d). Throughout this paper the researchers will examine the nature of the population and social issues confronting them and explore the macro practice interventions.

...The Human Toy In our world today, we see and hear about an abundance of crime and human dysfunction. We see cases of illegal trade of weapons and drugs. Yes, this causes distress throughout the county and our world, but these are just “things.” Beyond the drugs and weapons, there is an even worse kind of illegal trade. Humans. Besides the illegal trade of weapons and drugs, human trafficking is the third largest illegal money-maker (Farr 2). Human trafficking is the purchase, sale, recruitment, harboring, transportation, transfer, or receipt of a person for the purpose of commercial sex (Gerdes 19). This being the world’s third largest illegal industry, it is rarely heard of and expressed. Human Trafficking is an enormous global problem. Of the estimated four million people who are trafficked around the world each year, over one million are trafficked into the sex industry. The volume keeps increasing. Researchers believe that the “actual” numbers are much higher than these estimates because many instances of trafficking go undetected (Farr 3). Researchers have concluded that sex trafficking is one of the most, if not the most, rapidly growing form of human trafficking (Farr 5). This industry is expanding at an ever accelerating rate, operating in marketplaces where supply and demand are high and risks to the traffickers are low, making it a highly profitable and enduring business (Farr 3). , The fastest-growing source region is the former Soviet...
