The rapid increase in "modern slavery" can be explained by the severity of migration policies in developed countries, the counter-geographies of globalisation, the world economic crisis, the growing feminisation of poverty and the transformation of market economies into market societies. Collectivities in which a model of life based on immediate satisfaction of desires is advocated, convey everything seems susceptible to be sold or bought; everything can be the object of commodification. trivialisation of consumption ignores the specific situation and context of others, whose bodies or strength are being purchased. Vulnerability and demand are therefore the "alpha and omega" of trafficking. An "amorphous demon" that embodies a variety of positions (moralistic, ideological and security) that justify mainly anti-migratory and criminalising responses.
