Abstract

Human trafficking is a widespread phenomenon occurring in numerous countries worldwide, with women and children being particularly vulnerable to exploitation. In China, the purchase of trafficked women and children has emerged as a significant criminal activity, posing grave threats to personal rights, societal harmony, and national stability. Adopting a criminological lens, this study elucidates patterns of criminal behavior, identifies underlying motivations, and offers recommendations to mitigate the societal impact of trafficking-related crimes. It investigates the legal concept, reasons for conviction and criteria for conviction, and examines the phenomenon, causes, and potential countermeasures of the crime of purchasing trafficked women and children. It explores historical, social policy, physiological, and psychological factors contributing to such crimes, while proposing preventive strategies encompassing social conflict resolution, psychological interventions, public security enhancement, and criminal justice reforms. According to the current situation, causes, and preventive measures, this paper advocates for initiatives include raising legal awareness among citizens, strengthening punitive measures, and enhancing social welfare provisions to effectively curb the trafficking and purchase of women and children.
