Forced labour, commercial sex slavery, and the extraction of organs are what 21 million victims around the world face on a daily basis. Human trafficking isn’t just a horrendous crime, but as Pope Francis called it “a crime against humanity.” Many people don’t know that there are more slaves in 2018 than ever before in history. Slavery was abolished in the United States in 1865, this shows that human trafficking was and is worsening each year. Furthermore, many corporations such as Nestle, Zara and Forever 21 exploit their employees. Nestle, for example, forced children to work on their farms without pay. Most often victims of human trafficking are forced into prostitution. Barbra Amaya, a victim of sex slavery for over a decade, described

Human Trafficking has been a problematic issue across many countries and currently remains as a very present issue. Human trafficking is defined as the recruitment and movement of people, most often through the use of deception, threat, coercion, or the abuse of vulnerability, for the purposes of exploitation (Domoney, 2015). I will argue that from a utilitarianism perspective, human trafficking is unethical since it doesn’t act for the greater good of everyone. Human trafficking only leads to negative consequences, killing and terrorizing hundredths of lives each day. The results of human trafficking are substantial, harming victims emotionally and physically. On the same note, I will argue that from the deontologist
Constant terror, abuse, long days and Isolation. These are the feelings human trafficking victims endure while being held captive and deprived of every basic human right (Behnke 15). When speaking of the term “slavery”, most would think of slaves from past centuries who were brought to North America and were abusively forced to work. However, slavery is not an issue of the past centuries. “Human Trafficking is the term that is used today for modern-day slavery” (Hart 4). Human trafficking manifests through various types of labor exploitation along with sexual exploitation and it is a rapidly increasing problem due to lack of awareness, education and law reinforcement.

The illicit trafficking of humans for purposes of slavery continues to be a global issue and clear violation of fundamental Human Rights. Article 4 of The UDHR states; “No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms”. Human trafficking is defined as the commercial trade of human beings for the purpose of some form of slavery or exploitation, a clear violation of individual human rights. It is hard to quantify the extent of the issue, however the UN has estimated that there are over 2.5 million victims of human trafficking across state boarders. As an international issue, human trafficking requires international attention - however for international laws to be most effective they
Human trafficking is in every state of this nation and in every country across the world. It’s in cities, suburbs, and rural areas; being hidden in plain view; unseen by so many. In 2015, 17,500 cases of sex trafficking were reported in the United States (Chawla). This is only the cases that were reported. It is estimated that there were about 20.9 million cases across the world that never got reported in 2015 (Lize). There are more human slaves in the world today than ever before in history (Straker). The purpose of this paper is to educate the reader on human trafficking in the United States and in the World, and prove how bad it has become.
A $28 billion trade is human trafficking, not to be confused with smuggling. This can take place in many forms such as modern day slavery, sexual exploitation, or even worse, organ harvesting. Human smuggling is when persons pay just to be brought into a country and do not get forced into all the terrible things that a ‘trafficked’ person gets forced into doing. Trapped with no way out many are forced to work as migrant workers or prostitutes. This is one of the fastest growing criminal activities around the globe. (Vardi, 2010). “It is estimated that 800,000 to 900,000 victims are annually trafficked across international borders worldwide and between 14,500 and 17,500 victims are trafficked into the United States annually.” (2012).
Human trafficking is a horrid activity present in the world today and remains active due to the high demand for cheap labor and the lack of reporting such.
“Human trafficking deprives people of their human rights and freedoms, it is a global health risk, and it fuels the growth of organized crime. The impact of human trafficking goes beyond individual victims; it undermines the safety and security of all nations it touches (The United States Attorney 's Office Northern District of Iowa, 2015)”.
Human trafficking is a serious global issue that needs the awareness and attention of the world. The United Nations Office for Drugs and Crimes identifies human trafficking as “an act of recruiting, transporting, transferring, harboring, or receiving a person through a use of force, coercion, or other means, for the purpose of exploiting them” (UNODC). According to the book Trafficking in People by the policy analysts Clare Ribando Seelke and Alison Siskin, this exploitation can include forced prostitution, ”forced labor and services, slavery, servitude, or the removal of organs” (Ribando Seelke and Siskin 4). Human Trafficking is a violation against fundamental human rights. But even 63 years after the United Nations Universal Declaration
There is an ethical epidemic that is plaguing this world and it is called Human Trafficking. Human trafficking is a serious crime that violates common human rights by trading humans and forcing them to complete acts of coerced labor, or sex slavery. It is the 2nd largest criminal operation in the world next to the drug cartel and it is done to make money off these innocent lives (Ottisova, 2016). The illegal trade and exploitation of human beings for forced labor, prostitution and reproductive favors is unethical and unacceptable by our society because many United States organizations are starting to work together to stop these intolerable acts to end the suffering and pain.
As stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights created by the United Nations in 1948 “No one has the right to treat you as a slave, nor should you make anyone your slave. No one has the right to hurt you. Everyone has the right to live in freedom and safety.” The world is in agreement that human sex trafficking is wrong and is a violation of fundamental human rights, but the industry continues to flourish. There have been numerous global conferences, conventions, and international laws that have been created, and all of them have come to a unanimous consensus: human sex trafficking will not be condoned in any country; it is a practice that is illegal, immoral, and inhumane. The central question that this study seeks to address is whether
Globally, about 20 to 30 million people are involved in the human trafficking system, and of those, 14,500 to 17,500 people are trafficked in the United States every year. Human trafficking is more prevalent today then ever before. It is the third largest crime internationally. People are abused and taken advantage of. According to the article, “11 Facts About Human Trafficking,” on average, a person is forced into the system around age 9, and the majority of victims are women and girls, with a small percentage of men and boys. In addition, the human trafficking system is a $32 billion dollar industry. Human trafficking can be defined as the selling and trade of human beings, ranging anywhere from children to adults, for the purpose of
Confucius (551-479BC) was a Chinese teacher, politician and philosopher; he has lived and worked during the Chinese Spring and Autumn Period (770-481 BC). Confucius father Kong He was an officer in the Lu military. Kong He died when Confucius was three years old and later his mother Yan Zhengzai raised Confucius in poverty. Confucius is the most influential Chinese philosopher, who’s teaching had a great effect and spread out in the Chinese life and culture for well over two thousand years, and has greatly influenced a substantial portion of the world's population.
Human trafficking, or the selling and buying of people, is a well-hidden yet prominent issue within today’s society. It is both an immoral and horrific topic that needs brought to attention and dealt with. When human beings are manipulated into work, sexual servitude, or economic hardship, human trafficking is occurring. In the year of 2006, only one individual is convicted of human trafficking per 800 victims (UNGIFT). By looking at straight statistics, reasons human trafficking happens, and the toll it has on people, it is very clear that this is a major issue that is happening in our world.
