Sequelas do COVID-19

o tráfico de crianças no mundo pandêmico

Abstract

The present study aims to examine the conceptual and statistical apparatus that characterizes human trafficking, from its content, its historical development and its protection instruments, as well as the role of globalization and the insertion of practice in the role crimes against humanity. The importance of the Palermo Protocol (2000) is also confirmed for the development of instruments that are not only international, but also in the structuring of a national apparatus capable of combating such practice. The notion of transnational crime is also linked to trafficking - and as such practice has an ingenious complexity in its performance. After such understanding, the investigation of child trafficking is carried out, based on an accurate examination of its definition, its qualitative and quantitative data, reaching the moment of the pandemic scenario. In this, it is necessary to analyze how the COVID-19 pandemic is and will harm the fight against child trafficking and what are the major challenges, facing the crime, that the community as a whole will face in a post-pandemic stage. For this, the methods used in the present approach rest on deductive, inductive and dogmatic. Finally, what is intended, in fact, is to correlate the need to understand human trafficking and, especially, child trafficking, with the pandemic world and its prospects in order to be able, effectively, nationally and internationally, to track a safe way to combat such criminal practice.
