Abstract

Human trafficking, an illicit form of migration which involves transnational crime syndicates, is resulting into human rights abuses at global level. The present article is an attempt to analyze theoretical postulations of human trafficking in a broader way. While defining the problem of human trafficking, distinction has been made of it from human smuggling along with discussion on its ‘push and pull’ factors, nature, pattern, routes and political economy.
