Introduction
Trafficking in persons is shown at the beginning of the century as “modern slavery”, the way in which the human person becomes the object by default the international rights framework humans. According to Laczko & Gramegna (2003, p.179), “trafficking in persons, especially in in women and girls though not new, is acquiring serious dimensions worldwide, in the recent context of globalization.” Current development of the phenomenon, ‘trafficking in persons’ is considered as a result of globalization, many a result of increased flows and information individuals. While a certain level of progress may have been globalized considered for a wider range of people, there was also the globalization of certain social evils. Since the slave trade, through the trafficking of women for prostitution to trafficking for forced labour, trafficking we associate with globalization not only due to the increased movement of people, but also to an allocation strategy international resources to reduce production costs and higher profits. The numbers are alarming. This paper attempts to explore the elements being potentially involved in this unfortunate act.
Discussion
The globalization is a phenomenon that majorly catalyses inequality internationally, has its heyday from the second half of the twentieth century, when states were faced with a new reality, in which the challenges imposed upon them fail to find solution in domestic law, obliges them to seek international cooperation and regulation for problems that become global. Among these, stands the development of transnational crime, such as the various types of international trafficking, such as trafficking in drugs, arms and human trafficking for various purposes.
