War, poverty, and famine; political, social, and economic change;
and the deep seated views and rituals rooted in a culture's history
and traditions all contribute to the widespread and growing
trafficking of women and children. The multilayered complexity,
myriad contributing factors, enormous amount of money involved, and
sheer magnitude of the problem render it impossible to solve with
the fractured and isolated measures of individual organizations and
countries. Only complete cooperation and collaboration at all
levels can establish the most proactive and self-sustaining
approach to reduce this global crime. Gathering knowledge and
experience from more than 40 countries, Global Trafficking in Women
and Children clearly demonstrates the scale and spread of the
problem, providing a powerful analysis of the circumstances that
contribute to the abuse and victimization of women and children as
well as the international policies and strategies used to combat
this crime. Divided into two parts, the book begins with an
introduction to the definition, nature, and scope of human
trafficking. It discusses several social theories as well as
evident environmental influences. It also examines measures to
control and prevent human trafficking from stricter laws and
monetary aid, to global community and law enforcement
collaboration. Part 2 consists of case studies, drawing examples
from a range of countries involved in every stage in the process,
and highlighting the unique characteristics of human trafficking in
each. Chapters include the prevalence of child pornography in
Japan, child abduction in China, bonded child labor in India, and
child soldiering in Congo (Zaire) and other African countries. The
final chapters discuss law enforcement in the US and UK, community
policing in Australia, and the cooperative national plan in place
in Croatia.
