Administrative Attempts of Turkey against the Trafficking in Human Beings: A Chronological Evaluation

Abstract

Turkey’s administrative steps against human trafficking, which was started after 1997 were seriously accelerated by Justice and Development Party Government after 2002. The main reasons of this acceleration are the Government’s legal and administrative plans in terms of full membership of the European Union and increasing awareness of international community for the human trafficking crime. In this regard, Turkey has prepared national action plans and established task forces. Despite their lack of functionality at the beginning, these elements have constituted the basis of plans formulated and units established within the framework of Law on Foreigners and International Protection. This study chronologically analysed the transformed elements of Turkey’s administrative approach to the problem of trafficking in human beings and these elements’ deficiencies. Within this context, this study covered some of the U.S. Department of States’ annual human trafficking reports and EU’s regular and progress reports related to Turkey in order to provide multi-dimensional perspective. In addition, to evaluate the further steps used by different sources, this study examined some of the practices of European Court of Human Rights.
