The United Nations Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime and its Protocols on trafficking in persons, smuggling of migrants, and trafficking in firearms and ammunition are the subject of this comprehensive legal commentary. The Convention, often referred to as the Palermo Convention, was approved by the UN General Assembly on November 15, 2000, and was signed by governments at a high-level conference in Palermo, Italy, from December 12 to 15, 2000. The Convention entered into force on September 29, 2003. The primary objective of UNTOC is to promote cooperation to prevent and combat transnational organized crime more effectively. It seeks to promote consistency among national legal systems and set standards for domestic laws to enable States parties to combat transnational organized crime effectively. UNTOC is supplemented by three protocols: the Protocol against the Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Air, and Sea, the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress, and Punish Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and Children, and the Protocol against the Illicit Manufacturing of and Trafficking in Firearms, their Parts and Components, and Ammunition. This book provides the text of each provision of the Convention and the Protocols, followed by a systematic analysis of their background and negotiating history, their interpretation by the Conference of the Parties and its working groups, in judicial decisions by domestic and international courts, in the academic literature, and in official material published by international organizations, including the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the guardian of UNTOC and the Protocols.
