Tiivistelmä
The European legal instruments on human trafficking encourage states to tackle the
demand for services of trafficked persons, for example, by making the use of services
of a trafficked person a criminal offense. In Finland, buying sex from a trafficked
person is a criminal offense. This article reports the results of an evaluation of the
Finnish law and shows that the implementation has been inefficient. The authors
argue that with an amendment of the law, the implementation could be improved but
a truly efficient policy would require a total ban of sex purchase along the lines of the
Swedish model.
