| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Human trafficking is a worldwide problem that international organisations have attempted to address since the early part of the twentieth century. Today it is a lucrative worldwide business operated by international criminal organisations that generates billions of dollars whilst bringing misery and degradation to the victims. Using a legal thematic this article examines human trafficking for sexual exploitation in Japan. It asks if Japan's domestic legal framework adequately addresses the issue and whether Japan is fulfilling its international legal obligations. |
