I plan on first discussing Antonella Arthin’s topic of human trafficking.
What is the topic? Antonella Arhins’s topic is the relation/correlation between the diasporic community playing into the frequency of human trafficking and those individuals being exploited for labor. What is her research question? Her research question is: what role does the diasporic community play within the human trafficking practice and the role of exploitive labor? The significance of her research is to find and analyze the relation between victims, traffickers and the diaspora in regards to the human trafficking business. What is the significance? The diaspora is key so this is especially important. By looking at the role that the diaspora plays it helps to see
Who’s the audience of this topic? The audience of the article is everyone within the general academia world. Since it is a topic of information and inquiry it is both significant and important to everyone. Individuals both affected and those not affected by this research as well as the findings will have something to either relate to or become informed about. Since human trafficking is still very much an ongoing issue today as well as exploitative labor, it is important that the audience be anyone and everyone. This helps propel its significance and makes the reader want to further find out information perhaps after the reading is even completed. The individual parts of the topic, which are the victims, traffickers and diaspora all relate to one another, by identifying this it is easier to see the effects and the role that they play in human trafficking. By having three specific variables the research can begin to shine some light on the roles that each of them play. As said in the article diasporas play both a positive and negative role within the human trafficking practice and labor exploitation. I believe research topics like this that are able to reach a wider audience can have more of a last impact since they are
The article by Antonella Arhin that I analyzed shows how to take my general topic (diets and their effects on the Caribbean diaspora and indigenous people) and helped narrow it down to a specific question (the health issues that this can cause i.e. Diabetes). This will assist in coming up with more concise research methods and ways to arrive at these answers. By having a detailed, concise research question it will help me with explaining the significance, as well as the approach that I take and the audience that I plan on targeting. As said previously I believe if I can reach a wider audience especially individuals from all walks of life it will help with them really paying attention to the types of food and also the amount that is consumed. To ensure this the ethnographic and cast study approach are both key, by casting a larger net for information it will help with more descriptive
“Hungry for Change” is an eye opening documentary made to explore the role that food plays in peoples’ lives. The experts, ranging from authors to medical doctors, address a variety of claims through testimonials, experiments, and statistical evidence. They not only state the flaws in this generation’s diet but also logically explain the reasons behind the downfall in peoples’ diet and offer better ways to approach our health.
The significance of this publication is to promote awareness on the issue of sex trafficking.
Slavery is one of the issues that was, is and has been a major concern in the world. The nature of contemporary slavery is unknown, but estimates show that there are millions of victims of slavery across the globe. Slavery covers a wide variety of human rights violations such as sexual mutilation of men, women and children, child prostitution, sale of orphans, child pornography and many others. On the other hand, human trafficking is an area of concern that involves recruiting, transporting, buying or selling a person by means of force or fraud for the purpose of commercial sexual exploitation or forced labor. Human trafficking deprives the victims of their human rights, and is one of the causes for the spread of sexually transmitted diseases
The United States is a major port for human trafficking and, “Due to the covert nature of human trafficking, it is difficult to ascertain which countries are the primary source nations for trafficking into the US” (Hepburn). People of all ages and genders are at risk to human trafficking (Hepburn). Women and girls make up about fifty-six percent of the people trafficked for forced labor, while men and boys make up the other forty-four percent; children make up forty to fifty percent of those numbers (Hepburn). Ninety-eight percent of the people trafficked for sexual explorations are women and girls (Hepburn). Children tend to be targeted more than adults because they are much more vulnerable. Human trafficking has different forms, and “While trafficking for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation is more publicized in the media, it is not the only form of trafficking that takes place in the US” (Hepburn). Trafficking for the purposes of forced labor is just as likely to occur as trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation (Hepburn). Many citizens have never heard of human trafficking for something other than sexual exploitation. Hepburn shows that, “Forty-three percent are trafficked for purposes of...
In the world, we live in people are struggling more than ever to make it to their dreams and are using all the means they can to achieve them. Today over 2 million people move from their homes to search for a better life. However not always do they find the happy ending they are looking for. Sometimes they meet people who could care less about them or their dreams and only want to fulfill their own agenda. Due to their desperateness, they have found themselves as victims of an immoral behaviors, human trafficking! I have chosen to analyze human trafficking. Human trafficking is one of the most popular crimes in the United states and foreign countries. First off, let me explain what human trafficking is human trafficking is “an illegal movement
Summary: We see that there are many different aspects and types of human trafficking that everyone should be made aware of. As a whole human trafficking is a lucrative industry raking in $150 BILLION globally. The impact that this industry has on its victims is
Amid a storm of controversies including gay marriage, state data hacking, and a heated debate on the Confederate Flag, South Carolina’s media has paid little attention to the pressing issue of human trafficking. Perhaps this is due to the viewpoint of many Americans that human trafficking is a third world problem far removed from them and the people that they care about (Archer). This simply leaves them unconcerned, and the media cannot sell topics that people are not upset or in an uproar over. However America, including South Carolina, is not exempt from this type of human rights abuse. Without proper recognition of the importance and prevalence of this issue from the general public, human trafficking cannot be solved even when the government takes combative action. This is the case of South Carolina legislators, who in November 2012, had House Bill 3757 signed by Governor Nikki Haley to go into effect on December 15th, 2012 (Conley). House Bill 3757 is one of the most promising pieces of anti-human trafficking legislation ever turned into law with many beneficial effects and ideas, but even it is not without its issues and areas for potential improvements.
Human Trafficking is one of the largest growing problems in the United States. This problem has been going on for hundreds of years and we still have trouble stopping it. The definition of trafficking is, “the illegal practice of procuring or trading in human beings for the purpose of prostitution, forced labor, or other forms of exploitation.” Every day people are being taken or forced to do unmentionable things against their will for free. This is a violent trade and the people who run these organizations are very good at moving people. This paper will talk about a brief history of human trafficking, the issues with human trafficking and facts of human trafficking. This is a very graphic trade and people often die or are killed while trying to help or trying to escape.
One of the biggest problems plaguing the earth and its inhabitants today is the act of human trafficking. Human trafficking is the trade of humans, most commonly for the purpose of sexual slavery, forced labor or commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others. Over the years, trafficking has been fueled by poverty and gender discrimination. Such as countries with a high poverty rate may be at a higher risk of human trafficking.

There are many things I will address in section one of my paper on human trafficking. First, will be how human trafficking works. Next, will be Human trafficking in the United States of America. Finally human trafficking out of the United States. I will go more into depth about the history of human trafficking, statistics about human trafficking, and info to argue how human trafficking is so wrong.
Human trafficking is a form of slavery, forcing victims to engage in sexual activities and labors against their will. These activities can be taken place through force, fraud, or constraint. Human trafficking is not just affecting one group of people, it is a worldwide issue, affecting all different ages, genders, ethnicities, and socio-economic backgrounds. Human trafficking is such an immense problem, apprehending the true size, knowing how to help, and how to keep the issue from reoccurring. Human trafficking is and is still becoming such a serious issue that something needs to be done about.
Human trafficking, or the selling and buying of people, is a well-hidden yet prominent issue within today’s society. It is both an immoral and horrific topic that needs brought to attention and dealt with. When human beings are manipulated into work, sexual servitude, or economic hardship, human trafficking is occurring. In the year of 2006, only one individual is convicted of human trafficking per 800 victims (UNGIFT). By looking at straight statistics, reasons human trafficking happens, and the toll it has on people, it is very clear that this is a major issue that is happening in our world.
Human trafficking is a topic that is not discussed very often in society. Many people fail to realize that human trafficking still exists today. Human trafficking violates basic human rights. It takes away the freedom and security of men, women, and children world wide. The diversity and widespread execution of human trafficking make it difficult to regulate and prosecute.
How could you define something that is so broad? What is human trafficking? Some experts define it as a sex trade. Majority of the population defines it as prostitution. The thing about human trafficking is that it’s a little between kidnapping and prostitution. The real definition of human trafficking is a recruitment of people that can be male or female, which these people use fraud, deception, and abduction. In some other case they use people transport them and have power over people having them to think that they owe the money back for the use of exploitation. With exploitation comes with forms of prostitution and other immorality activities, hard labour, acts of intensive slavery, or even death. Death comes with forms of removing organs to get back the money they used on the person. With the hard labour comes with jobs like construction work and factory work. You can refer to human trafficking as modern day slavery. Most of the time the reason people do this crime because they do not have to pay the worker but keep all the money for themselves and that’s why they make a lot of profit off of human trafficking. Slaves have restricted freedom just as the people that is being used as sex slaves. The females and males that are being used as sex slaves live in very poor conditions. With living in poor conditions comes with very poor hygiene. With illegal activity comes with risk. Human trafficking is a very violent business. The United States is one of the main points to transport individuals for human trafficking. With the cost of living at it all time high, with jobs play low wages, human traffickers look at this as a great oppor...
