The recently released 3P Anti-trafficking Policy Index shows that policy performance against human trafficking demonstrates mixed results worldwide during the period of 2000-2011. Most countries have adopted anti-trafficking law in their legal systems and committed to criminal justice...

This study aims to identify robust push and pull factors of human trafficking. I test for the robustness of 78 push and 67 pull factors suggested in the literature. By employing an extreme bound analysis, running more than two million regressions with all possible combinations of variables for...

Mehr als 2,45 Millionen Menschen sind laut den Vereinten Nationen Opfer von Menschenhandel, die Dunkelziffer ist hoch. Viele Staaten haben deshalb ihre Bemühungen verstärkt, gegen Menschenhandel vorzugehen und den Opfern zu helfen. Das DIW Berlin hat nun den 3P-Index, der die staatlichen...

This study aims to identify robust push and pull factors of human trafficking. I test for the robustness of 70 push and 63 pull factors suggested in the literature. In doing so, I employ an extreme bound analysis, running more than two million regressions with all possible combinations of...

This paper empirically analyzes the causal relationship between migration and human trafficking inflows into Germany during the period between 2001 and 2010. My results suggest that migrant networks, measured by migrant stocks from a specific source country, increase the illicit, exploitative...
