Humans have extensively migrated in the greatest variety of circum-stances throughout history. The cause factors have been climatic, political, economic, religious, and love of adventure. Today, around 200 M people are living beyond their homes of origin. And yet a number of people fall prey to unconventional, if not risky, migration paths. One of these paths is by being trafficked - often called modern-day slavery is the recruitment, transportation, or receipt of people for the purpose of exploitation. About 600,000 to 800,000 people, mostly women and children, are annually trafficked across national borders. In addition, some people are also forced to leave their origin for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion and become refugees in third countries.

Interested scholars and students of all branches of social sciences will find this book useful.
