By Andre Johannes

Traces of Exploitation: History, Structure, and Interpretations of Human Trafficking

Human trafficking is not just a crime it is the continuation of centuries of exploitation shaped by history, power, and inequality. This book takes readers on a journey through time, from ancient slavery and colonial servitude to modern-day trafficking in the digital era.

Written in a clear and engaging style, Traces of Exploitation explores:

The deep historical roots of slavery and forced labor.

How global policies like the Palermo Protocol have tried to respond to modern trafficking.

The structural and cultural chains that keep exploitation alive today.

The human security dilemma: protecting states vs. protecting people.

Blending history, sociology, and public policy, this book offers fresh perspectives on one of the world's most urgent human rights issues. It is ideal for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone who wants to understand the hidden systems that allow trafficking to persist.

If you want to uncover the past to better understand the present-and rethink how we fight human trafficking in the future this book is for you.
