The starting point of a discussion/debate about human trafficking has to be both a definition of what really is and what is not human trafficking and how much aware are we of this practice in our own societies. There are observatories and institutions dedicated to this phenomena. The US Trafficking in Persons Report (http://www.state.gov/j/tip/rls/tiprpt/) estimates that there are 12,5 million slaves in the world in 2011. Are you surprised by this number ? Did you expect it to by bigger or smaller?
Making this phenomena visible and more present in the perceptions of the world population is one of the goals of this blog.
