In the Springer New York Journal "Trends in Organized Crime," written by James O. Finckenauer and Galma Jahic, the definitions of trafficking and their influences on current public and government polices are examined. The authors pose the question, "Are the victims of trafficking always the primary concern, or are other issues pushed forward at their expense?" The journal delves into a wide array of topics concerning organized crime and provides detailed descriptions of trafficking according to government policies and the terms in which they are legislated. Global issues and perspectives are acknowledged and covered with an immense amount of information. The authors were supported by the National Institute of Justice, with access to their research information used throughout the journal.
