Globalization and Human Trafficking

handle is hein.journals/jrlsasw34 and id is 299 raw text is: Globalization and Human Trafficking LoRING JONES DAVID W. ENGSTROM TRICIA HILLIARD MARIEL DiAz San Diego State University School of Social Work Globalization demands that social workers embrace more than just local and national perspectives; they must adopt an internation- al viewpoint as well. A negative aspect of globalization that de- serves more attention is the international movement of labor. This paper presents a description and analysis of trafficking, the more deleterious part of this movement of people, in a global context. Decision makers seeking to make global migration more humane need to know about the dynamics and process of trafficking, as well as ways to combat it. Definitional controversies, contex- tual issues (including the dynamics and processes of trafficking), and consequences of this movement for individuals and societ- ies are discussed. Implications for social work are also presented. Keywords: human trafficking, global migration, labor exploita- tion, international labor movement Introduction Globalization has resulted in an unprecedented flow of capital, goods and services, and labor into every continent and Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare, June 2007, Volume XXXIV, Number 2 107
