What is the legislative significance of crime of trafficking in children?

It is reasonable and practical to abolish the crime of kidnapping and unify it into crime of trafficking in children.

In recent years, the phenomenon of children's disappearance and trafficking in China has occurred from time to time, which makes people feel very worried. In China's current laws, the crime of kidnapping mainly refers to abducting adults, while crimes against minors mainly involve crimes in crime of trafficking in children and crime of trafficking in children. However, with the development of society, not only more and more children are trafficked, but also the criminal means are becoming more and more complicated. In order to better protect the safety of minors, some experts and scholars put forward the proposal of unifying the crime of kidnapping as crime of trafficking in children.

Crime of trafficking in children, as a new kind of crime, is actually put forward in view of the defects of existing laws. In practice, due to the vague definition of the crime of kidnapping, it is difficult to effectively combat and correct the crime of abducting and selling children. Once crime of trafficking in children is stipulated by law, we can more specifically crack down on crimes such as abducting and selling children and let criminals know that such acts are strictly prohibited and may face more severe punishment.

In addition, unifying the crime of kidnapping as crime of trafficking in children can also improve the public's safety awareness and further protect the safety of minors. This practice can make the public pay more attention to children's safety and strengthen preventive measures, thus reducing the phenomenon of children's disappearance and trafficking. This is very important for the healthy growth of minors and social harmony and stability.

Of course, in the actual operation process, the definition and implementation of crime of trafficking in children still need to rely on the judgment and practical experience of judicial organs. Because this kind of crime often involves the cooperation of many people, the judicial organs need to invest more resources and energy to detect and punish it. At the same time, we also need to pay attention to whether there is abuse of power and violation of human rights in the execution process of judicial organs, and take effective supervision and restraint measures in view of this situation.

To sum up, it is of positive significance to abolish the crime of kidnapping and unify it into crime of trafficking in children. Although the specific definition and implementation need to be further improved and explored, and some challenges and difficulties will be encountered in the implementation process, this practice can provide more effective protection and support for the safety and rights of minors, and it is a new model worth trying and exploring.
