Abstract

This article offers a brief background to the crimes of human trafficking, slavery and the slave trade which often take place in and as a result of conflict situations, such as in Ukraine. These crimes are, however, often conflated and misunderstood: not only by the general public, but also by professionals working in this field. Even though these crimes are commonly conflated, each crime has specific requirements or elements, and address egregious conduct.Their legal histories and policy base are distinct yet complementary. Their dual juridical availability could provide meaningful, effective redress for women and men, both adult and child survivors. The article intends to contribute to untying the knots, to disentangle the misconceptions of human trafficking from the slave trade and slavery.The endeavour is not theoretical, but practical. It is done to fortify the pursuit of human trafficking as a transnational crime and the slave trade and slavery as international crimes. In short, this article aims to explore, distinguish, and harmonise the available jurisdictions for human trafficking, slavery and the slave trade.
