Abstract

While human trafficking is viewed as one of the most lucrative and dangerous types of criminal activity in criminological terms, it is viewed as a modern form of slavery in the social context. For many countries in the modern world, the rate of labor trafficking (forced labor) is characteristic of the growth rate. According to the International Labor Organization, about 13 million people were forced into labor in the world in 2005, of which 64% belonged to the private sector of the economy and 20% to the state and military sectors. Most of those involved in forced labor (56%) are women. In 2012, these figures almost doubled, and the number of those involved in forced labor reached nearly 21 million. Of these, 14 million (68%) were employed in the private sector and 2.2 million in the public sector. 5.5 million (26%) were under the age of 18. According to the United Nations 2014 report, more than 20 million people, one-third of whom are children each year, become victims of human trafficking and 40 percent are forced into labor. According to reports from international organizations, of the 56,000 known human trafficking victims worldwide, 51% are women, 21% are men, and 28% are children. 58% of the victims are exploited by criminals and organizations through more than 570 routes to other countries. The deepening of the problem plays a special role in the financial crisis in many countries of the world, the geography of armed conflicts, the rise in demand for cheap labor and the emergence of unregulated migration flows. It is estimated that there are 40.3 million victims of modern slavery in the world, of which 16 million are forced into labor, construction, and agriculture.
