Adanya dominasi ideologi patriarki telah melahirkan diskriminasi, eksploitasi, dan kekerasan terhadap perempuan. Salah satu bentuk kekerasan terhadap perempuan yang meluas dan tengah menjadi isu global adalah perdagangan perempuan. Perdagangan perempuan merupakan isu yang sangat kompleks, karena aspek di dalamnya mencakup ketenagakerjaan, migrasi, kemiskinan, serta kejahatan. Kawasan Asia Tenggara, yang mayoritas negaranya merupakan negara berkembang, merupakan kawasan dengan perdagangan perempuan paling marak di dunia. PBB, melalui UNODC dan UNIAP, telah melakukan upaya-upaya untuk memberantas perdagangan perempuan di kawasan Asia Tenggara. Namun, upaya pemberantasan perdagangan perempuan di kawasan Asia Tenggara tidak cukup hanya diselesaikan oleh PBB, selaku organisasi internasional global, saja. ASEAN, selaku organisasi internasional regional di kawasan Asia Tenggara, juga melakukan upaya-upaya untuk memberantas perdagangan perempuan di kawasan Asia Tenggara. Dalam mengkaji peranan ASEAN tersebut, penting untuk mengetahui ketentuan hukum internasional mengenai pelarangan perdagangan perempuan, bentuk-bentuk usaha ASEAN dalam memberantas perdagangan perempuan, serta penerapan ketentuan hukum internasional mengenai pelarangan perdagangan perempuan, yang mengacu pada Protocol to Prevent, Suppress, and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, dalam peraturan perundang-undangan nasional masing-masing negara anggota ASEAN. Permasalahan-permasalahan tersebut akan dijawab melalui penelitian yuridisnormatif sehingga diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa ASEAN harus mendorong penerapan standar prinsip hak asasi manusia internasional di kawasan Asia Tenggara guna memberantas perdagangan perempuan. The domination of patriarchy has resulted in discrimination, exploitation, and violence against women. One of the form of a wide-spread violence against women that has become a global issue is women trafficking. Women trafficking is a very complex issue, because its aspects involve labor, migration, poverty, and crime. Southeast Asia, which is populated by developing countries, is the region where women trafficking is most-spread. United Nations, with its UNODC and UNIAP projects, has been making efforts to suppress the women trafficking in Southeast Asia. However, the effort to suppress the women trafficking in Southeast Asia are not relayed solely upon United Nations. ASEAN, as the regional international organization, also makes efforts to suppress the women trafficking in Southeast Asia. In studying the role of ASEAN in suppressing the women trafficking in Southeast Asia, it is important to know the rule of international law regarding the suppression of women trafficking, ASEANs efforts in suppressing the women trafficking in Southeast Asia, and the application of the rule of international law regarding the suppression of women trafficking, based on Protocol to Prevent, Suppress, and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, in each ASEAN member states legislation. These problems will be answered through a juridical-normative research, thus it can be concluded that ASEAN must support the implementation of international human rights principles in Southeast Asia that will suppress the women trafficking. |
