Då Trafficking för sexuella ändamål är ett brott mot mänskligheten som pågår i outtröttlig styrka vill den här uppsatsen belysa hur Sverige som stat arbetar för att motarbeta Trafficking både internationellt och nationellt. För att kunna göra en så bred bedömning som möjligt av svenska statens arbete har teorin varit en rättsociologisk då den tar upp både lagliga, samhälleliga, etiska och sociala aspekter. Och då det är en stats arbete som granskas har metoden som använts varit utvärderande då uppsatsen velat lyfta fram hur lämpligheten men även effektiviteten av Sveriges arbete är. Som en del av detta har mycket av empirins fokus lagts på de bakomliggande mekanismerna så som vilka grupper som livnär sig på att sälja andra personers kroppar, hur den svenska sexköpslagen är utformad och hur de svenska myndigheterna arbetar med problematiken..

The thesis ?Vi fixar och trixar oss fram till att hjälpa människor? focuses on social work in the field of prostitution and human Trafficking in Sweden. Through semi-structured interviews with social workers in the municipalities of Stockholm, Göteborg and Malmö working with persons selling and buying sex, and through discourse analysis, the author analyses the perceptions among these social workers of the relation between human rights, prostitution and human Trafficking, and the social work which they conduct.The thesis concludes that although the social workers perceive prostitution and human Trafficking and social work in this field as human rights related, they are not explicitly using a human rights based approach in their work.The thesis concludes that the social workers identify several aspects that infringe on the rights of their clients in relation to the human rights principles of Universality, Non-discrimination, Accountability and Rule of law and the principle of Participation and Inclusion. They portray the human rights situation of street based sellers, especially those not being Swedish citizens and those affected by human Trafficking, as severe.The thesis concludes that the social workers find several obstacles (legal as well as structural) that diminish their ability to strengthen their clients? human rights situation.

I och med att den nya lagen (Lagen om förbud mot sexuella tjänster 1998:408) infördes, har man sett att sexhandeln har blivit mer dold. Utifrån det har polisens förebyggande arbete blivit svårare. Trafficking som är en del av könshandeln, är något som polisen har arbetat mot länge, det är inget nytt brott. Men den 1 juli 2002, infördes ett nytt brott i brottsbalken, Människohandel för sexuella ändamål. Årligen uppskattar EU att det in i EU förs cirka 120 000 ? 500 000 kvinnor och barn från andra delar av världen, varav 300-600 av dem hamnar i Sverige.

Trafficking är ett problem som ökat markant under de senaste decennierna i takt med det allt mer globaliserade samhället. Given den transnationella karaktären hos problemet, krävs det ett internationellt samarbete för att komma till en lösning på Trafficking. Icke- statliga organisationernas arbete mot problemet är vitalt för att få ett slut på den moderna formen av slavhandel Vi gör en komparativ fallstudie över tre organisationer som, med olika intressen och syn på problemet, föreslår olika åtgärder. Genom denna fallstudie har vi som intention att se till hur dessa organisationers olika formuleringsprocesser snarare bidrar till konflikt än till samarbete. Dessa organisationer ställer vi i relation till FN, som vi menar kan verka som medlande part och ett instrument för organisationerna att få sina röster hörda..
