State Responsibility for ?Modern Slavery? in Human Rights Law: A Right Not to Be Trafficked

Do humans have a right not to be trafficked? This book examines the legal nature of human trafficking and its relationship with human rights law. Drawing on the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights, it shows that human trafficking is indeed a human rights violation requiring legislative and institutional responses from states.
