Human trafficking as a form of modern slavery
THE ARTICLE POINTS OUT, that making humans the objects of the trade is one of the cruellest form of the inernational contemporary slavery and it should be eliminated especially by the effective legal regulations. This problem is the infringement of basic rules, which are the foundations of structure of the modern-day society and, at the same time, is believed to be a serious threat to public order. With the aim of fighting and preventing development of the human trafficking cooperation between countries, governments and international institutions is absolutely necessary. Above all it is state institutions’ duty to counteract this phenomenon effectively, to protect the victims and provide them with essential care. Fighting human trafficking might be successful only with comprehensive, integrated, multidisciplinary attitude and the toplevel worldwide cooperation between countries. However, the bigger differences amongst societies in the issue of human rights, the more difficult fight with the human trafficking seems to be.
