Tráfico de seres humanos e trabalho forçado: Uma abordagem crítica ao fluxo de informações utilizado pela Organização Internacional do Trabalho

Abstract

Trafficking in persons, although it is a problem of remote origin, exists on a global scale, mainly due to structural elements such as the forced mobility that capitalist system imposes on the workforce. However, the fight against human trafficking faces an impasse of conceptual order because of the diversity of definitions adopted by the countries and organizations and the diversity of approaches and methodologies. This context influences flow of information on human trafficking, an issue addressed here through comparative research. The sample consists of ten countries and documentary resources are the official reports concerning the implementation of Conventions 29 and 105 on forced labor submitted to International Labour Organization, examined in its nature, explaining the similarities and differences.
