The Sex Trade: Slavery and Prostitution

People all over the world are faced with inhumane treatment and condition every day. "Traffickers use force, fraud or coercion, including containment, beatings, rape, confiscation of documents, bondage of debt, false owners and harm threats" (Potocky, 2010). Sex trade is now a worldwide problem and will increase worldwide unless measures are taken to prevent and eliminate sex trading. Sexual slavery is a form of prostitution and traffickers are increasing profits by soliciting slavery.

Sexual slavery is distinguished from prostitution by Svitlana Batsyukova (2007) because prostitutes usually buy and sell voluntarily and get monetary compensation. In addition, the legalization and regulation of prostitution varies from country to country, trafficking and sexual exploitation are unanimous and unfair infringement on basic human rights. In addition, victims of human trafficking are not refunded or paid, they can sneak into it and can not escape the unpopular position unless there is a danger of violence or even death.

Trafficking aimed at sexual exploitation is the main cause of modern sexual slavery, mainly through prostitution to women and children's sex industry. Sexual slavery includes most, if not all forms of forced prostitution. The term "compulsory prostitution" or "compulsory prostitution" can be found in international and humanitarian practices, but it is not fully understood or consistently applied. "Compulsory prostitution" usually refers to a condition that dominates a person being forced by others for sexual activity. The official numbers of sex slaves around the world are various. In 2001, it was estimated that the number of international migrant organizations was 400,000, the FBI was 700,000, UNICEF was 1.75 million. UNODC reports that the most common destinations of trafficked victims are Thailand, Japan, Israel, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Turkey, and the United States of America.

According to Bindman (1998), the concept of slavery is not unique to sex industry (31), but since prostitutes are marginal chemists of sex industry, it is still possible to adopt it . Slavery is a condition of "anytime, everywhere when workers are deprived of fundamental human rights and freedom" (Bindman, 1998: 31). Pheterson stated that many women are using prostitution as a choice for "prosecution, poverty, abuse, and / or boredom at home" and that "lack of choice is not unique to prostitution but abuse, poverty , Racism, drug addiction, poverty work "conditions, lack of perseverance and / or despair prostitutes or" workers "want to change the working environment even if transactions are necessary I think (Pheterson 1996: 39)
