This paper is going to research and critically analyze the conflict regarding legalization of prostitution as well as provide a comparative perspective on illegal prostitution in the United States and legal prostitution in Germany.

...Human Trafficking -What impact does human trafficking have on the world? Human trafficking is a multi-dimensional threat. It deprives people of their human rights and freedoms, it is a global health risk, and it fuels the growth of organized crime. It is kind of modern day slavery and is the third largest criminal industry in the world after arms and drug dealing. It involves an act of recruiting, transporting, transferring, harboring or receiving a person through a use of force, coercion or other means, for the purpose of exploiting them. The common denominator of trafficking scenarios is the use of force, fraud, or coercion to control people; that control is tied to inducing someone into commercial sex acts, or labour or services. Men around the world profit in pleasure and in price from the exploitation of women and children. Poverty and global disparities in the rule of law are conditions in which human trafficking, like HIV/AIDS and other killers of the poor, thrives. Trafficking of children often involves exploitation of the parents' extreme poverty. The latter may sell children to traffickers in order to pay off debts or gain income or they may be deceived concerning the prospects of training and a better life for their children. Nearly 80 percent of trafficked persons are women and girls and up to 50 percent are children. It is estimated that upwards of 17,000 people are trafficked into the United States each year; an additional 200,000 American children are considered...
