International efforts to codify the law on trafficking in persons have been evolving since the early twentieth century. This paper re-examines this journey of law and divides the existing international and domestic legal regimes into three categories: the rescue model, quasi-curative model, and curative model. The study proposes the development of an effective legal model, which may rest on the twin pillars of shared state responsibility and long-term assistance to trafficking victims. In this model, it is argued that the enunciated principles of prosecution, protection, and prevention to combat human trafficking should not be dealt with in isolation, but in combination with the concepts of state responsibility and international financial co-operation to provide long-term assistance to the victims. My central argument focuses on the suitable legal regime in which the prosecution strategy is to successfully prosecute traffickers in person, improve survivors’ protection, and reinvigorate obligations imposed on the states.

人口贩运法：寻求有效模式

自 20 世纪初以来，编纂贩运人口法的国际努力不断发展。本文重新审视了这一法律历程，并将现有的国际和国内法律制度分为三类：救助模式、准治疗模式和治疗模式。该研究建议开发一种有效的法律模式，该模式可能基于共同的国家责任和对贩运受害者的长期援助这两个支柱。在这个模型中，有人认为，打击人口贩运的起诉、保护和预防原则不应孤立地处理，而应与国家责任和国际金融合作的概念相结合，以提供长期对受害者的援助。
