In the post-Cold War era, economic globalization has resulted in the buying and selling of human beings. Poverty, social instability, lawlessness, gender biases, and ethnic hostility have entrapped millions in the world of modern day slavery, with the result that human trafficking is one of the fastest growing criminal industries in the world. Every year, men, women, and children from across the globe are transported within or across borders for the purpose of forced labor and sexual exploitation. Despite the plethora of journalistic articles written on human trafficking there is a need for more rigorous academic analysis of the phenomenon. Although groups from many different ideologies have embraced policies to end human trafficking, there are still many gaps and unanswered questions, particularly with regard to the amount of, and nature of, the phenomenon. This book provides an insight into the complexity of human trafficking by addressing both how the scope of globalization impacts the sex industry and forced labor, and how vulnerability is a growing cause of human trafficking, affecting traditional diasporic and migratory patterns.

Mit der vorliegenden, vom Bundesministerium der Justiz und für Verbraucherschutz in Auftrag gegebenen Studie wurden die im Jahr 2016 reformierten strafrechtlichen Vorschriften über die Bekämpfung des Menschenhandels (§§ 232 bis 233a StGB) einer kritischen Prüfung unterzogen. Zu diesem Zweck wurden unter anderem eine Aktenanalyse, zahlreiche Interviews mit Expert:innen und ein Workshop durchgeführt. Das Ergebnis der Forschung ist ernüchternd: Die vom Gesetzgeber mit der Reform verfolgten Ziele wurden zum Großteil nicht erreicht. Die Autor:innen schlagen daher mehrere Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung der Bekämpfung des Menschenhandels vor.
