Trafficking in Persons : Prosecution from a European Perspective
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The crime of trafficking in persons is being increasingly committed in an international context and many of the problems in prosecuting this crime are aggravated by the fact that more than one state is involved. National criminal laws are not sufficient to prosecute and to combat it adequately. As a transnational crime, solutions for an effective prosecution should be sought beyond national borders. This publication will provide an initial impetus for an approach at the EU level to prosecute trafficking in persons more effectively, based on the concept of regional jurisdiction. Recently developed instruments and initiatives within the EU, such as the European Arrest Warrant, Eurojust and a European Public Prosecutor, are also covered in this book. The final conclusion that can be drawn is that, for the moment, a dual track should be followed in order to prosecute the trafficking in persons more effectively.
