Anthony Low Commonwealth Lecture 2026
My thanks to Professor Matthew Neuhaus for his introduction and to everyone for coming out tonight. I am so happy to be here and especially to be delivering the Anthony Low lecture: named after one...
Trafficking in transnational criminal law 1
The raft of international agreements on slavery that were concluded in the latter part of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century did not purport, and were never considered, to cover the practices that are now associated with trafficking, including sexual exploitation, forced labour, debt bondage, and child labour. This chapter considers the &s;transnational criminal law&s; regime that was created around trafficking in persons. Tha…
Abuse of a position of vulnerability within the definition of trafficking persons
In 2010, States Parties to the Trafficking in Persons Protocol requested the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) to examine certain concepts within the definition of trafficking. This chapter focuses on the concepts examined for UNODC in response to that request: abuse of a position of vulnerability (APOV) as a means by which the &s;act&s; element of the definition of trafficking is committed. It includes the drafting history of the …
What's Wrong with the Global Slavery Index
The Global Slavery Index (GSI), which has been produced by the Walk Free Foundation in 2013, 2014 and 2016, seeks to calculate the number of victims of human trafficking (or ‘modern slavery’) in each country and to assess and rank government responses. Using the latest iteration of the Index, this article examines each of the three elements (vulnerability measurement; prevalence measurement and response measurement), making some preliminary findi…
Two Cheers for the Trafficking Protocol
The Trafficking Protocol makes an easy target for attack. Its origins lie in an attempt to control a particularly exploitative form of migration that was challenging the ability of States to control their own borders. Its parent instrument is a framework agreement to address transnational organised crime. While paying fleeting attention to the rights of victims, the Protocol, with its emphasis on criminalisation and border protection is nowhere n…
The International Law of Migrant Smuggling
Whether forced into relocation by fear of persecution, civil war, or humanitarian crisis, or pulled toward the prospect of better economic opportunities, more people are on the move than ever before. Opportunities for lawful entry into preferred destinations are decreasing rapidly, creating demand that is increasingly being met by migrant smugglers. This companion volume to the award-winning The International Law of Human Trafficking presents the…
International Law of Migrant Smuggling
Measuring the Success of Counter-Trafficking Interventions in the Criminal Justice Sector
Global concern about human trafficking has prompted substantial investment in counter-trafficking interventions. That investment, and the human rights imperatives that underpin counter-trafficking work, demand that interventions demonstrate accountability, results and beneficial impact. How this can happen in practice is complicated and contested. This article, which considers success measurements with respect to criminal justice interventions, s…
International Law of Human Trafficking
The International Law of Human Trafficking
Although human trafficking has a long and ignoble history, it is only recently that trafficking has become a major political issue for states and the international community and the subject of detailed international rules. Anne T. Gallagher calls on her direct experience working within the United Nations to chart the development of new international laws on this issue. She links these rules to the international law of state responsibility as well…

Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights

A Shadow Report on Human Trafficking in Lao PDR
Since 2001, the United States government has issued annual reports on the situation of human trafficking in every other country deemed to have a significant problem in this area. This article focuses on the standards used in assessing the response of States to trafficking. It notes that international law already provides detailed and substantive guidance on the obligations of States in this area. Using Lao PDR as an example, the article demonstra…
Human Rights and the New UN Protocols on Trafficking and Migrant Smuggling
Human Rights Quarterly - Volume 23, Number 4, November 2001
Human Rights Training for United Nations Peace-Keepers
Peace-keeping by the United Nations has become a central tool of international diplomacy and conflict resolution. In contrast to its previous emphasis on providing a passive buffer between antagonists, modern-day United Nations peace-keeping is increasingly directed towards establishing the conditions under which respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms can be maintained or restored. This shift in emphasis is reflected in the tasks which…
