Tráfico de pessoas e segurança pública : uma análise sociológica sobre o fenômeno

Abstract

Human Trafficking is an issue that has aroused a historical and intense global concern regarding the degree of complexity it establishes in view of its social, cultural and political dynamics, as well as its own and equally complex modus operandis. This has demanded the need to create and organize a certain bureaucracy and institutional arrangements for its potential confrontation. In this movement, this dissertation develops a critical reflection on the crime of human trafficking. The theoretical basis was based on the reflections provided by the Epistemologies of the South (Santos, 2010), which proposes a critical look at the epistemologies of modern Western thought. The general objective of the research was to sociologically analyze the crime of human trafficking based on the Palermo Protocol, interfacing with public policies and institutional arrangements designed to effectively address it. As a method, we opted for a qualitative-quantitative, exploratory and descriptive research, through documentary and bibliographic research. As for the results, the research demonstrated the existence of a set of bureaucracies and institutional arrangements created to combat the crime of human trafficking. As final conclusions, it is believed that the main contribution of this scientific research is to have proposed, through a theoretical construct of data and information, which set in motion the interpretation that human trafficking, in fact, is an emerging and social issue that needs to be thought and debated beyond the legal cartography, thus making this study a possible sociological reference to problematize the issue presented and discussed in the light of scientificity.
