Resumo(s)
O Tráfico de Seres Humanos e o Terrorismo Internacional representam duas das maiores ameaças contemporâneas à segurança global, frequentemente interligadas em dinâmicas complexas. O tráfico de seres humanos, para além de representar uma grave violação dos direitos fundamentais e uma atividade criminosa transnacional, assume-se igualmente como um recurso económico de relevo para grupos armados. Paralelamente, o terrorismo internacional depende de mecanismos de financiamento diversificados e adaptáveis para sustentar as suas operações e expandir a sua influência. Quando estas realidades se cruzam, as organizações terroristas conseguem não apenas financiar as suas atividades, mas também consolidar o seu poder através de práticas de exploração e coerção. Compreender esta relação revela-se, assim, essencial para entender a amplitude dos riscos envolvidos e para reforçar os mecanismos de prevenção e combate quer do terrorismo quer do tráfico de seres humanos. Neste âmbito, a presente investigação desenvolve uma análise teórica e conceptual sobre as interdependências entre terrorismo e tráfico de seres humanos. Este enquadramento permite identificar os canais através dos quais o tráfico de pessoas contribui não apenas para a sustentabilidade financeira dos grupos, mas também para a sua estratégia de expansão e consolidação. Para ilustrar empiricamente estas dinâmicas, recorremos ao caso do Estado Islâmico, considerado um exemplo paradigmático da instrumentalização do tráfico de seres humanos para fins terroristas. A análise deste caso fornece uma perspetiva prática sobre o impacto do fenómeno, contribuindo para o debate académico e para a definição de respostas internacionais mais eficazes contra ambas as ameaças.
Human Trafficking and International Terrorism are among the most pressing contemporary threats to global security, often interconnected through complex and mutually reinforcing dynamics. Human trafficking, while primarily recognised as a severe violation of fundamental rights and a transnational criminal activity, also functions as an important economic resource for non-state armed groups. At the same time, international terrorism relies on diversified and adaptable funding mechanisms to sustain its operations and to expand its influence. When those two realities intersect, terrorist organisations are able not only to finance their activities but also to consolidate power through practices of exploitation and coercion. Understanding this relationship is therefore essential to fully grasp the scope of the risks involved and to inform more effective prevention and response strategies. Within this framework, this research aims to develop a theoretical and conceptual analysis of the interdependencies between terrorism and human trafficking. This approach sheds light on the channels through which human trafficking contributes not only to the financial sustainability of such groups but also to their strategy of expansion and consolidation. To empirically illustrate these dynamics, we used the case of the Islamic State, regarded as a paradigmatic example of the instrumentalisation of human trafficking for terrorist purposes. The analysis provides practical insights into the impact of this phenomenon, contributing to both academic debate and the development of more effective international responses to these threats.
