Abstract

This article provides a summary of research undertaken to investigate public awareness and understanding of human trafficking in Great Britain, Hungary and Ukraine. Responding to the lack of reliable empirical data on this issue, the research relies on representative national opinion surveys to assess the extent of public awareness of what constitutes human trafficking, the sources of knowledge underpinning this awareness, and respondents’ attitudes towards key dimensions of human trafficking as embedded in international and respective national legal and policy frameworks and discourses. Conceptually, this article reinforces recent calls for policy and media paradigm shifts from understanding human trafficking as a phenomenon of crime and victimhood, to, above all, a human rights concern linked to the broader issues of sustainable development and social justice. Methodologically, the study highlights the role of opinion surveys as a measure of effectiveness and impact of anti-trafficking awareness campaigns. In practical terms, the article presents a set of data which can be useful for policy-makers, anti-trafficking activists, and national media in designing impactful awareness-raising campaigns and interventions.

英国、匈牙利和乌克兰公众对人口贩运的了解

本文概述了为调查大不列颠、匈牙利和乌克兰公众对人口贩运的认识和理解而进行的研究。由于缺乏关于这一问题的可靠实证数据，该研究依靠有代表性的全国民意调查来评估公众对人口贩运的认识程度、支持这种认识的知识来源、，以及答复者对国际和各自国家法律和政策框架及论述中涉及的人口贩运的关键方面的态度。从概念上讲，这篇文章强化了最近关于政策和媒体范式转变的呼吁，从将人口贩运理解为犯罪和受害者现象，转变为最重要的是，将人权问题与更广泛的可持续发展和社会正义问题联系起来。从方法上讲，该研究强调了民意调查作为衡量反贩运宣传运动的有效性和影响的作用。从实际意义上讲，这篇文章提供了一组数据，可供决策者、反贩运活动人士和国家媒体在设计有影响力的提高认识运动和干预措施时使用。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
