AbstractCriminal law in Indonesia specifically does not regulate online prostitution. However, in several court decisions, online prostitution is often linked to the crime of human trafficking because online prostitution involving pimps fulfills the elements of the criminal act of human trafficking as stated in Law No. 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of human trafficking. This raises the question of what elements cause a pimp can be said to have fulfilled the element of the criminal act of human trafficking and whether sexual consent by a commercial sex worker can erase the criminal element of a pimp. Therefore, in this paper, the authors discuss further the elements of sexual exploitation and consent to victims of human trafficking using online prostitution.Keywords: Online Prostitution; Human Trafficking; Criminal Act.AbstrakHukum pidana di Indonesia secara khusus tidak mengatur terkait prostitusi secara online. Namun, dalam beberapa putusan pengadilan, prostitusi online sering kali dikaitkan kepada tindak pidana perdagangan orang dikarenakan prostitusi online yang melibatkan muncikari memenuhi unsur-unsur tindak pidana perdagangan orang sebagai mana tercantum dalam Undang-Undang No 21 Tahun 2007 Tentang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Perdagangan Orang. Hal tersebut menimbulkan pertanyaan mengenai unsur apa yang menyebabkan seorang muncikari dapat dikatakan telah memenuhi unsur perbuatan tindak pidana perdagangan orang dan apakah persetujuan seksual oleh pekrja seks Komersial dapat menghapus unsur pidana seorang muncikari. Oleh karena itu, dalam penulisan ini, penulis membahas lebih jauh terkait unsur eksploitasi dan persetujuan seksual (sexual consent) terhadap korban tindak pidana perdagangan orang dengan modus prostitusi online.Kata Kunci: Prostitusi Online; Perdagangan Orang; Tindak Pidana.

The research focuses on the characteristic, knowledge, and experiences of buyers of sex, focusing on human trafficking and exploitation. Recognising that those trafficked for sexual exploitation are often exploited in the commercial sex industry, the research adopts an understanding of ‘demand’ in the context of human trafficking which includes demand for women in prostitution. In order to study buyers, a mixture of quantitative and qualitative research tools was used, including online questionnaires and face-to-face interviews. Through these methods, a total of 763 buyers engaged with the research, across four EU Member States (Ireland, Finland, Bulgaria and Lithuania). A number of important findings emerged in the research. Buyers interviewed were seen to have a complex view of sellers. They overwhelmingly viewed the sale of sex as a transaction between two consenting adults, but also saw sellers as different from other women. At the same time, although up to a third of buyers had witnessed or suspected exploitation, a gap emerged with regard to those who had reported such fears. Finally, irrespective of their knowledge of human trafficking, or measures targeting those who knowingly purchase sex from trafficked victims, buyers rarely considered trafficking when purchasing sex.Keywords: human trafficking; sexual exploitation; prostitution; demand; buyers

The spaces of trafficking for sexual exploitation have profound effects on the embodiment of women who are forced to live within them. This article argues that the spaces of human trafficking can be understood as abject spaces, and as such, they trouble multiple boundaries including those between hidden and exposed, domestic and commercial, and public and private. This article provides a theoretically speculative engagement with notions of abject space and mimicry to add a further dimension to the debate on the nature of the spaces of trafficking. These abject spaces, and the sexual exploitation that takes place within them undermines women’s notions of bodily integrity, yet I argue there is agency to be found in the loss of embodied identity. The basis for this engagement is an analysis of a series of documents written by women who were trafficked from post-Soviet countries to Israel. It will conceptualise the ways women survive in such a space by challenging bounded notions of the body.

It is estimated that annually 100,000 to 300,000 youth are at risk for sex trafficking; a commercial sex act induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or any such act where the person induced to perform such an act is younger than 18 years of age. Increasingly, such transactions are occurring online via Internet-based sites that serve the commercial sex industry. Commercial sex transactions involving trafficking are illegal; thus, Internet discussions between those involved must be veiled. Even so, transactions around sex trafficking do occur. Within these transactions are innuendos that provide one avenue for detecting potential activity. The purpose of this study is to identify linguistic indicators of potential commercial sexual exploitation within the online comments of men posted on an Internet site. Six hundred sixty-six posts from five Midwest cities and 363 unique members were analyzed via content analysis. Three main indicators were found: the presence of youth or desire for youthfulness, presence of pimps, and awareness of vulnerability. These findings begin a much-needed dialogue on uncovering online risks of commercial sexual exploitation and support the need for further research on Internet indicators of sex trafficking.

Pandemics disproportionately devastate those who are most vulnerable, including people who have experienced human trafficking. While numerous stakeholders have raised concerns regarding the potential effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on trafficked persons, very limited research exists documenting the effects of Covid-19 upon survivors. To understand the cross- cutting impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic upon human trafficking survivors, we must first listen to survivors themselves about how their basic safety, security, and health have been affected. We present findings from a rapid assessment conducted with human trafficking survivors in the Philippines regarding their experiences, needs, and priorities during the Covid-19 pandemic (n=233). Results of the rapid assessment revealed four primary concerns and priorities from the perspectives of survivors: food insecurity, loss of employment, mental health concerns, and an escalation in crisis incidents, with greater impact reported among those trafficked for sexual exploitation. Findings reinforce the need to broaden definitions of safety and facilitate emergency interventions that prioritize the most urgent needs articulated by survivors themselves.


The aims of this research are to identify the factors that cause human trafficking, to describe the map of origin region and destination of delivery, to analyze the modes used by the traffickers. The method used is the Qualitative Descriptive Method. The results showed that there were seven main factors causing human trafficking in North Sulawesi. Those were lifestyle, lack of knowledge and capacity, potential employability as commercial sex workers, demand of commercial sex workers, youth marriage and limited employment in formal sectors and secullarism. Most of the victims came from Manado City, Minahasa, South Minahasa and North Minahasa Regency. The largest destination areas of the victims were Papua, West Papua, Southeast Sulawesi and Batam (the Province of Riau Islands). The modes used by the perpetrators are persuading victims to work outside the area with high incomes, cheated with debt bondage, offering scholarship programs, adopted as children, fraudulent and abducting. The efforts that need to be done to eliminate human trafficking are changing the lifestyles from consumptive to productive by increasing self-resilience (changing the paradigm of thinking to be realistic and not regarding material wealth as a source of self-esteem or avoiding hedonism) and improving self-capacity through continuous knowledge enhancement. Local governments need to enlighten the publics through various programs/activities such as socialization with emphasis on human trafficking modes, to train of members of the task force on prevention of human traffics, to cooperate and to form partnerships with other institutions and local/regional governments, to build cooperation on the prevention and handling of human traffics with non-government institutions, to break the links of sexual trafficking and other types of unlawful businesses, to prevent young marriages to stimulate job creations, especially in the formal sectors and to increase the roles of parents and education institutions
