Many people believe that globalization is a good practise. However, the vary reason why human trafficking exists today is because of our globalizing world.
In today's society, moving from one country to the next is normally quite easy, due to the right of travel in most democratic countries and nations. Because of this, criminals, scammers, and other abusing or corrupt organisations can easily find ways to lure people out of their country. Like kidnapping, the victim finds his/herself in a different country as an illegal alien, with no one to turn to for help.
A great example of illegal human trafficking is explained in the blockbuster movie, "Taken," starring Liam Neeson.
A young woman visits Europe for a vacation.
She is kidnapped and illegally sold to an illegal company which creates prostitutes for sexual pleasure.
Liam Neeson stops at nothing to save his daughter.
In a nutshell, I think the reason why human trafficking occurs is because ciminal organisations are taking advantage of fleeing poor and desperate people from war torn countries. Communication technologies are also playing a part in this terrible crime. The Internet, cellphones, media, and other methods of communication allow human traffickers to coordinate, plan, and abuse innocent people.
And finally, I believe that corrupt companies, organisations, governments, and other democracies are playing a role in this terrible practise.
Human Trafficking is a disgrace and horrific crime caused by globalization.
It's scary stuff.
