The topic of the dissertation, entitled ´Cross-national evaluation of the sources of anti-trafficking enforcement´, is highly relevant from the perspectives of global governance and human rights protection. This thesis aims to provide a quantitative, cross-nationally comparative, longitudinal and multilevel study of the drivers and hindrances of national governments´ anti-trafficking measures. In this research, both macro-level determinants of anti-trafficking enforcement and micro-level foundations of human trafficking are explored. In the manuscript, large-N comparative research examines how characteristics of countries interact with people´s attitudes towards violence to better understand what creates environments that are more or less supportive of governments´ anti-trafficking efforts. The results presented in the thesis speak not only in favor of studying this topic systematically and cross-nationally, addressing existing gaps in the literature but also in favor of combining macro- and micro-level evidence for developing more effective policy responses against human trafficking.
