The stereotype that "the exotic is the erotic" has fueled the demand for foreign women to enter prostitution, further inflating the demand for trafficked women. This has been a traditional marketing angle in the sex industry, dating back to oman times when the hetaerae, or foreign women, commanded the highest prices for sexual services. Today, there is an even broader selection of source countries for recruitment.

War or a military conflict has fueled the demand for women to be brought to places of conflict so they can provide sexual services for troops. Where a permanent military presence is established, there are always brothels and prostitutes in the vicinity and places for the troops to rest, relax, and be entertained.

Human rafficking: A Growing hreat for All Undocumented Migrant Workers.
Human trafficking, despite the growing global awareness, has generated an international response that is fractured and disjointed. he issue of human trafficking in the current global world is a very tragic reality. . Despite a growing global awareness of this issue there still appears to be a fractured and disjointed international response regarding how to effectively deal with the problem. Although many countries have adopted interventions to limit the increasing cases of human trafficking, the prevalence of the crime is still high accompanied with few risks and high profits. Historical analysis of the vice shows that its origin dates back to two hundred years ago when the slave trade started between different communities and exchange of sex for favors that were considered contrary to the humanity. Reliable statistics of human trafficking across the globe are limited, but the number of people…...

The targets of human trafficking are often those in lower socio-economic groups who often have other physical or mental disabilities (U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement, 2005). Significant evidence shows that poverty makes it difficult for the affected to acquire their basic needs such as food, clothing, and shelter. As such, they fall victims of human trafficking as they are lured into the unknown effects of human trafficking. Evidence presented by Aronowitz (2009) showed that most of the global populations become victims of human trafficking, due to the laxity in the legal institutions that protect human rights and eliminate the incidences of human trafficking. Their laxity creates opportunities that breed, sex trafficking, thereby, the prevalence (Aronowitz, 2009). Comment by Rudy: Addressed above Comment by Robert Diemer: What factor?

In addition, people within the affected communities label them as coming from backgrounds that make them become relaxed in seeking help from the authorities involved in their protection. For instance, mMarginalized ethnic minorities, indigenous communities, undocumented immigrants, and poor people with disabilities might experience the effects of human trafficking; . H however, because of their backgrounds, they are often make them reluctant in seeking the required support, thereby, worsening severity of the matter (Danailova-Trainor & Belser, 2006; U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement, 2005). . The lack of credible evidence on the global prevalence rate of sex or human trafficking contributes to the increasing rate and the difficulties of curbing the issue. The lack of statistical evidence implies the limited significance of the subject to most of the matter to most of the global states. Similarly, factors such as lack of socio-economic opportunities for the citizens of the state, political instability, oppression, violation of human rights among other factors play a role in contributing to the increasing global rates of human trafficking. These factors contribute to human trafficking by exerting significant pressure on the victims that make them vulnerable to sex and/or human trafficking (Macias Konstantopoulos, et al., 2013). Comment by Robert Diemer: Remove this..just state facts. Comment by Robert Diemer: Who said? This is a statement of fact and all statements of fact must have an in-text citation.

At the end of the day human trafficking is ultimately about people. Human trafficking persists due to a large part because certain groups of individuals are vulnerable to being exploited by others (Gallagher, 2010).

Sex Trafficking of Women Across Europe
Sex trafficking is the transportation of women using deception, force, and coercion into slavery and exploitative conditions. Sex trafficking is associated with organized crime. In the global economy, selling of women for sexual bondage is the fastest growing criminal enterprise. The European Union has stated that the problem of sex trafficking is growing worse with each passing year. It is estimated that women account for 96% of sex trafficked victims. The victims are mostly from European countries like Bulgaria, omania, or Moldova. Outside Europe Nigeria and China accounted for most victims.

There are many factors that compel women to fall into the arms of sex traffickers outside their home country. The traffickers deceive women seeking better employment in foreign countries, and once they arrive, they are kept in bondage in the foreign country. The factors that contribute to sex trafficking of women are economic, demand for…...

Sex trafficking is a broad term that encompasses a wide range of dehumanizing activities. By definition, sex trafficking involves the forced transportation and subsequent exploitation of human beings, especially women. Sex trafficking is a subset of a more general problem known as human trafficking, which can involve any type of slavery-like forced labor scenarios often but not necessarily involved in sex (The Project to End Human Trafficking). As the organization Soroptimist puts it, "all forms of modern day slavery share some common characteristics: slaves are forced to work; are owned or controlled by another person; are dehumanized and treated as commodities; and are physically or psychologically constrained and unable to escape." Commonly referred as a form of "modern slavery" by media outlets like CNN, sex trafficking has reached epic proportions in a global underground marketplace (Kara). Although the methods of sex trafficking differ per operation, there are patterns that have…...

Child Sex Trafficking:
Sex trafficking is basically defined as the enlisting, harboring, provision, moving, or acquisition of an individual for the main goal of a commercial sex act. In this case, an individual who has not attained 18 years old is forced or coerced to perform sexual acts. Generally, a person is forced or coerced for the purpose of debt bondage, involuntary servitude, or slavery. In the past few years, child sex trafficking has become a major epidemic not only in the United States but also across the world. While many people know the issue of child sex trafficking, they are not aware of the extent of uncontrolled exploitation of children and its impact. Given the severity of the impact of child sex trafficking, it is increasingly important to understand this crime and develop appropriate policy measures to reduce its prevalence.

AbstractAlthough the social justice issue of child sexual trafficking is widely regarded by the American public as a problem that is faced by other nations, particularly impoverished developing countries, the harsh reality is that child sex trafficking routinely occurs in the United States as well. While exact numbers about its prevalence in the United States are unavailable, it is known that sex trafficking, including men, women and children, occurs in all 50 states. The purpose of this study is to provide a review of the relevant literature concerning child sexual abuse and trafficking in the United States, including how young victims are typically groomed for sexual exploitation. In addition, a discussion of the specialized social work practice of child sex trafficking, including the multiple ethical issues that are involved, is following by a description of an evidence-based intervention with proven efficacy as an intervention for child sex trafficking victims.

The Trafficking Victims Protection eauthorization Act

This paper reviews the rights and protection that a state and federal government official provides to citizens that have been the subject of human trafficking crimes. Citizens need the protection of the police and other law enforcement officials to report human trafficking crimes and to protect and assist those that need their assistance. This paper will seek to explain the definition of human trafficking, how it works, victim support, issues with upholding and implementing legislature and the solutions which can be used to satisfy the public.

Child Sex Trafficking
Human Trafficking is occurring all around the world and also in the United States. This is not just a crime that is committed in other countries. There have been cases reported by the authorities in every single state. Those victimized are at every age from adults to young children of both genders. Based on federal reporting it is estimated that the number of persons exploited sexually for money or trafficked are in the thousands (DOJ, 2007). Some are brought into the U.S. from other countries and the number of citizens that are trafficked in the U.S. are unknown officially. The primary sex crimes being includes child exploitation, prostitution, and pornography (Keane, 2006).

The age range of children involved in sexual trafficking is as early as 12 years old. Those of school age that do not live with their biological parents are often targeted. Children are often targeted due to…...

international sex tourism has been a worldwide curse for a long time, the last few decades witnessed great surge in its practice as the effects of globalization, poverty and consumerism spread while advancement in internet caused an increase in travel opportunities. The racist fantasies and unusual interest in sexual activities in the developing countries along with poor law enforcement have made way for sex tourism. Though some may have exaggerated the magnitude of this immoral industry, more than one million children are trapped inside this trade every year (Vrancken and Chetty, 2009).
The 1904 Paris Agreement for the Suppression of the White Slave Traffic (1904 Agreement), the first of its kind, aimed at protecting female children and others who were forced to go abroad for sex trade.

Prostitution and Feminism: Questions for a Modern Society
In answer to the question of whether prostitution is just another line of work, the most comprehensive and simplest answer is to say, no, it is not. The reason for this is that there are too many complexities associated with prostitution -- not just ethical and moral issues -- but also social, legal, economic, political, safety, and theoretical issues that color the sex industry. True, one could argue that any field of labor or industry could be discussed using the same terms, but the issue with prostitution is that it is a term that can be used without being properly defined. As Hallie Rose Liberto points out, when feminists discuss prostitution, they are discussing much more than the sex trade: they are discussing women's rights, women's alienation, women's health, and women's equality.[footnoteRef:1] Because the issue is those so charged with underlying meanings, at…...

From the PowerPoint we get the definition of human trafficking which is stated as the exploitation of a person or persons for sex, labor or for body organs. This means that human trafficking is done for different reasons which are stated above (Chernush, 2010). Statistics show that men, women and children are all victims of the different forms of human trafficking. Therefore it means that men, women and children are all vulnerable to these three forms of human trafficking.in the U.S. The average age at which a child can become a victim of sex trafficking is between 12 and 14 years. This means that children at this age are more vulnerable to sex trafficking in the United States. Human trafficking can happen to anyone and even the people we love most.

Additionally, it has been observed that the Obama Administration's approach differs from the Bush Administration in that the latter was more short-sighted in its anti-trafficking goals (Ditmore, 2009). The Bush Administration was focused primarily on combating sex trafficking, while the Obama Administration aims to address a wider array of abusive labor practices (Ditmore, 2009). The aims of the Obama Administration reach for wider public support and attempting to deal with the problem more effectively by addressing important, related abusive practices.
States are also playing a critical role in anti-trafficking measures. State and local law enforcement officials are working on combating human trafficking (National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, 2010). Many states have their own human trafficking legislation (National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, 2010). Maryland is also committed to anti-trafficking measures. In particular, the Attorney General of Maryland, the Baltimore City State's Attorney, and the U.S. Attorney's Office created a Human Trafficking…...

Prostitution causes consequences because:
- It perpetuates the objectification and exploitation of individuals for profit
- It contributes to the perpetuation of gender inequality and violence against women
- It poses serious health risks, such as the spread of sexually transmitted infections
- It can lead to psychological and emotional harm for those involved, including trauma and substance abuse

Solution to address the consequences of prostitution:
- Implement and enforce stricter laws against sex trafficking and exploitation
- Provide support services, such as counseling and job training, for individuals trying to leave the industry
- Offer education and awareness programs to combat the demand for prostitution
- Invest in....
