Trafficking in persons–the illegal and highly profitable recruitment, transport, or sale of human beings for the purpose of exploiting their labour–is a slavery-like practice that must be eliminated. The trafficking of women and children into bonded sweatshop labour, forced marriage, forced prostitution, domestic servitude, and other kinds of work is a global phenomenon. Traffickers use coercive tactics including deception, fraud, intimidation, isolation, threat and use of physical force, and/or debt bondage to control their victims. Women are typically recruited with promises of good jobs in other countries or provinces, and, lacking better options at home, agree to migrate. Through agents and brokers who arrange the travel and job placements, women are escorted to their destinations and delivered to the employers. This encyclopaedia is a must-have reference manual for those involved in judicial and legal interventions into the trafficking trade and for those involved in the struggle for upholding the rights of women and children in India. It is also useful for common readers.
