¶ … matrices for human trafficking. They observe that although in recent years great progress has been made towards understanding and of the problem and combating it, little development has been made in effectuating measures that can specifically delineate it and in developing effective ways to collect the data. This results in contradictory information on the subject and on few studies being based on extensive research. It was only fairly recently that a joint decision was made on how to define "human trafficking." Nonetheless, there are so many variables and divergences within the phenomenon that difficulty still exists in international agreement in defining the term.

The authors state that efforts against trafficking will only improve when all countries have a unanimous standardized system of measures with which they can track the problem and when all countries begin to enact and implement the necessary anti-trafficking legislation. The latter depends on help from the former.

Laczko and Gramegna (2005) argue that steps that should be taken to address the current shortage of data o the subject include:

1. Raising awareness about the need for better data

2. Ensuring that the project of collecting data is given...

...

Promoting a better use of existing statistics though national and local organizations
4. Encouraging the agencies that combat trafficking to develop data systems and to collect data

5. Constant and ongoing research in order to collect as much data as possible on the problem and possible ways to combat it.

I find the authors' research to be objective since even though they are passionate about their subject -- and this is a good thing btu needs to be monitored (Neumann, 2006) -- they are also patently knowledgeable about it, quoting an admirable immensity of authoritative sources to support their research. Whilst this indicates their breadth of scholarliness on the subject, it still may not indicate their objectivity. Nonetheless, rather than engaging in accusations and recrimination against the lack of measures, they explain the difficulty of adequately measuring such as an intractably complex and huge subject where " the range of actions and outcomes covered by the term" are vast. Commiserating with the challenge, they nonetheless delineate the need for adequate measures to be constructed. Objectivity is also seen later on…
