About this book

This book offers a brand-new perspective on human trafficking as an illegal business. It also proposes a new form of networked action: combining the perspectives of academic researchers with those of highly skilled professionals involved in policymaking in this area, this book is a unique contribution and a first step toward a networking paradigm, promoting collaboration in preventing and combating human trafficking crime, and in raising awareness of this ongoing problem.

This book was born within the CINETS group – Crimmigration Control International Net of Studies (www.crimmigrationcontrol.com), which was established in 2011 with the aim of bringing together expertise from different fields, professions, universities and countries. It aims to form a new paradigm for sharing knowledge and advancing research on topics related to human trafficking, crimmigration control, immigration and crime, immigrant detention and all types of violence that may affect victims of crimes, helping to create a fairer society.

Reviews

“The Illegal Business of Human Trafficking aims to promote a better understanding of THB as a complex crime with the capacity to adapt to changing circumstances and encourages the development of prevention strategies at a local level. … the volume stresses the importance of victim identification to combat THB, raises awareness on the issue, and contribute on human trafficking with its numerous case studies, legal definitions, and guidance fir law enforcement authorities.” (Simon Engelkes, Sicherheit und Frieden, Vol. 34 (1), 2016)
