Abstract(s)
Na última década a luta contra o tráfico de seres humanos tem vindo a receber
uma crescente atenção por parte de diferentes entidades no mundo inteiro. No
entanto, e não obstante a multiplicidade de esforços que têm vindo a ser colocados
em prática nos últimos anos para combater este fenómeno, a realidade é que,
surpreendentemente, muito pouco ainda se sabe acerca daqueles que o praticam.
Assim, tendo como objetivos globais dar resposta a esta necessidade de
investigação e possibilitar uma melhor compreensão desta realidade em Portugal,
este projeto visa apresentar uma proposta de investigação empírica para a
identificação das características e padrões sociodemográficos, psicológicos,
motivacionais e comportamentais dos traficantes de seres humanos condenados
pela prática deste crime em Portugal.
Este seria, portanto, um estudo exploratório, de natureza essencialmente
qualitativa, conduzido quer através da realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas
a uma amostra de indivíduos que se encontrem a cumprir pena de prisão pela
prática de todas, e quaisquer formas de tráfico abrangidas pela legislação
portuguesa, quer por intermédio da aplicação da técnica de análise documental a
processos judiciais sobre os casos de tráfico condenados a nível nacional.
Independentemente dos desafios ou obstáculos que possam surgir face a uma
futura implementação desta proposta, espera-se um dia poder avançar com uma
pesquisa desta natureza em Portugal, acreditando-se que a criação de dados
empíricos nesta área poderá constituir uma ferramenta imprescindível na luta
contra, aquele que poderá ser considerado, um dos piores crimes que a
humanidade é capaz de cometer contra si própria.
Over the last decade the fight against trafficking in human beings has been receiving increased attention from different entities worldwide. Nonetheless, and regardless the multiplicity of efforts that have been put in place during the past years to combat this phenomenon, the reality is that, surprisingly, still very little is known about those who practice it. Thus, with the overall goals of addressing this research gap and enable a better understanding of this reality in Portugal, this project aims to present an empirical research proposal for the identification of the socio-demographic, psychological, motivational and behavioural characteristics and patterns of the human traffickers convicted of the practice of this crime in Portugal. This would be, therefore, an exploratory study, of an essentially qualitative nature, conducted through either the use of semi structured interviews to a sample of individuals serving prison sentences for all, and any forms of trafficking covered by the Portuguese law, as well as through the application of the document analysis technique to the court records of trafficking cases convicted at the national level. Despiste the challenges or barriers that may arise in a future implementation of this proposal, it is hoped one day to move forward with a study of this nature in Portugal, believing that the creation of empirical data in this field may constitute a vital tool in the fight against, one of those that may be considered, the worst crimes that humanity is able to commit against itself.
