Global Trafficking In Women And Children

---

Edited by Obi N. I. Ebbe and Dilip K. Das, published by CRC Press in collaboration with the International Police Executive Symposium, this book is a collection of academic papers that discuss the trafficking of women and children as a transnational organized crime in a global context. The book's cover depicts bound hands and feet behind a brick wall against a backdrop of currency from various countries, symbolically emphasizing that trafficking is a form of modern slavery driven by economic motives and transcending national borders. The book compiles case studies from various regions that analyze the patterns, routes, and methods of trafficking for sexual exploitation, forced labor, forced marriage, and illegal adoption, as well as its close links to migration, poverty, conflict, and weak border governance. The book also examines the response of the criminal justice system, the role of law enforcement officials, the challenges of cross-jurisdictional prosecution, and the need for international cooperation, victim protection, and human rights-based policies. Using a criminological and public policy approach, this publication offers a comparative framework for understanding the push and pull factors of trafficking and for formulating more effective prevention and enforcement strategies. Aimed at academics, researchers, police, policymakers, and international practitioners, Global Trafficking in Women and Children is an essential reference for viewing human trafficking as a global issue that requires a collective, cross-national response.
