Trafficking in Persons for the Removal Of TRAFFICKING IN PERSONS FOR THE REMOVAL OF ORGANS IN INDIA: EXPLORING THE IMPACT OF ECONOMIC, SOCIAL, AND CULTURAL FACTORS ON VULNERABILITY AND PROTECTION By KATHERINE FINDLEY A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Social Work Written under the direction of Dr. Patricia Findley And approved by ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2018 TRAFFICKING IN PERSONS FOR THE REMOVAL OF ORGANS IN INDIA: EXPLORING THE IMPACT OF ECONOMIC, SOCIAL, AND CULTURAL FACTORS ON VULNERABILITY AND PROTECTION By KATHERINE FINDLEY Dissertation director: Dr. Patricia Findley This dissertation explores how influences on the individual, family, community, and governmental level impact susceptibility to trafficking in persons for the removal of organs (TPRO) in India. Two of the research questions examine specifically what impacts vulnerability and protection among a sample of 43 individuals living in a community in India. The third research question explores the role of the living organ donor assessment process in the prevention of trafficking. In this dissertation, the theoretical understanding of how choices are made, or not made, particularly by vulnerable individuals, is explored. Qualitative interviews were conducted with persons trafficked for organ removal and persons not trafficked for organ removal who are living within the same socio-economic environment, but who were not all trafficked for organ removal. Study data were analyzed using constructivist grounded theory methods. Findings from this study show that economic, cultural, and social influences affect both protection from and susceptibility to trafficking. It was found that resources, government response to poverty, motivations, and the utilization of the body as an economic tool all influence trafficking status. Additionally, it was found that cultural and social influences included gender, family dynamics, awareness and community information sharing, and organ sale broker presence. Furthermore, trafficked persons secure government approval for organ removal through broker facilitation and the donor ii assessment often fails to protect against of persons for organs. Findings reveal that family pacts against organ sales, knowledge of negative consequences of transplant, and protect individuals from being trafficked for an organ. For those who were trafficked, it was found that the combination of poverty, coupled with the presence of organ brokers who work within an inadequate donor assessment system t created an environment where poverty originated organ removal (POOR) occurs. Both trafficked and non-trafficked individuals utilized their bodies in the way that they could to survive or meet financial obligations, as the environment requires it. This structurally coercive environment leads to trafficking of individuals for organ removal through the abuse of the individual’s vulnerability. This research provides macro to micro level recommendations for the elimination of TPRO through preventative programs and policies, as well as highlights the need for assistance for trafficked persons. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to thank my chair Dr. Patricia Findley. She has been my fearless advocate since day one, always supporting me and believing in me. Without her experience, guidance, moral support, and sense of humor, I would not be where I am today. Findleys stick together. I would also like to thank Dr. Judith McCoyd for her willingness to work with me and openness to discussion and exploration. I greatly appreciate her patience throughout the process. She not only taught me how to be a qualitative researcher, but also how to be a better editor. I would also like to thank Dr. Debra Budiani-Saberi who took a chance on a stranger and opened her world to me, always dedicating herself to teaching me. I have learned so much from her and have immense gratitude for the doors that have been opened and the partnership and friendship that has been built. My PhD journey in to international research ethics began with Dr. Francis Barchi who taught me so much about how to protect research participants and how to conduct ethical research. I could not have completed this dissertation without that strong foundation. I appreciate her ability to challenge my thought processes and my own personal assumptions.

    social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article Epistemic Communities, Human Rights, and the Global Diffusion of Legislation against the Organ Trade Fikresus Amahazion Department of Sociology and Social Work, National College of Arts and Social Sciences, Asmara 12423, Eritrea; Tel.: +291-711-8538; [email protected] Academic Editor: Martin J. Bull Received: 11 August 2016; Accepted: 19 October 2016; Published: 27 October 2016 Abstract: Over the past several decades, over 100 countries have passed legislation banning commercial organ transplantation. What explains this rapid, global diffusion of laws? Based on qualitative data from in-depth interviews, historical analysis, and secondary sources, this paper explores the role played by the medical epistemic community and human rights in the global spread of laws against the organ trade. In addition to shaping, guiding, and influencing norms and approaches to transplantation, the epistemic community has been instrumental in the development of various resolutions, policy initiatives, recommended practices, statements, legislation, and model laws. Moreover, the epistemic community helped position the organ trade as an issue of societal and global importance, and it persistently encouraged states to undertake actions, such as implementing legislation, to combat the organ trade. Critically, the epistemic community’s efforts against the organ trade incorporated the concepts of human rights, integrity, and dignity, which had diffused globally and become institutionalized in the period after WWII. Keywords: world culture; human rights; organ trafficking; policy diffusion; epistemic communities; law; policy 1. Introduction Transplantation, the process of replacing failing organs in one individual with healthy organs from another, is “hailed as one of the great miracles of modern science” ([1], p.

ORGAN TRAFFICKING AND THE TVPA: WHY ONE WORD MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN INTERNATIONAL ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS Elizabeth Pugliese* INTRODUCTION A guy goes into a bar for a drink. The next morning, he wakes up in a hotel bathtub covered in ice up to his chest. There is a note taped to the wall that tells him not to move and to immediately call 9-1-1 from the cell phone next to the tub. He does and the operator tells him to carefully feel his back. The man feels a closed incision. The operator tells him to remain calm, an ambulance is on the way. Then the operator tells him what happened; he is the victim of organ theft.' This story is an urban myth. The reality is, although no one is waking up in bathtubs without kidneys, organs are being sold, sometimes willingly, sometimes not.

  • Personalised Medicine, Individual Choice and the Common Good
    PERSONALISED MEDICINE, INDIVIDUAL CHOICE AND THE COMMON GOOD Hippocrates famously advised doctors, ‘it is far more important to know what person the disease has than what disease the person has’. Yet 2,500 years later, ‘personalised medicine’, based on individual genetic profiling and the achievements of genomic research, claims to be revolutionary. In this book, experts from a wide range of disciplines critically examine this claim. They expand the discussion of personalised medicine beyond its usual scope to include many other highly topical issues, including: • human nuclear genome transfer (‘three-parent IVF’) • stem cell-derived gametes • private umbilical cord blood banking • international trade in human organs • biobanks such as the US Precision Medicine Initiative • direct-to-consumer genetic testing • health and fitness self-monitoring Although these technologies often prioritise individual choice, the original ideal of genomic research saw the human genome as ‘the common heritage of humanity’. The authors question whether personalised medicine actually threatens this conception of the common good. britta van beers is an associate professor at VU University Amsterdam. As a legal philosopher she explores the notions of person- hood and corporality within the regulation of biomedical technologies, such as assisted reproductive technologies, markets in human body mate- rials and biomedical tourism. In 2011 she received the Praemium Erasmianum Research Prize for her PhD dissertation on the legal relation- ship between persons and their bodies in the era of medical biotechnology (2009). Recent publications include the co-edited volumes Humanity in International Law and Biolaw (Cambridge University Press, 2014) and Symbolic Legislation and Developments in Biolaw (2016).
