Whether the author of the article uses the terms interchangeably \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tor whether he means a different ethnicity is not evident. The accused are supposed \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tto have smuggled infants from Corsica to France and sold them in Marseille and \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAjaccio. Only inaccurate information is available about the exact background \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tand motives of the events. One of the biological mothers is said to have given \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tbirth to her child under a false identity to facilitate a resale. By making the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tethnicity of the accused explicit, something anything but obvious, the article \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsuggests that the offense is a Rroma cultural peculiarity. This is much more the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tmatter of extreme behaviour by some individuals. Something that is not stressed \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tat all. With this, all those Rroma who are living blameless lives are \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdiscredited. The phenomenon of child trafficking, as repeatedly portrayed in \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthe media, has to be critically reviewed, as scientific social studies demonstrate. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThese refer to the prevalence of criminal explanations of human trafficking over \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthe perspective of the people involved and their backgrounds (compare Ortoli \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2014, Oude Breuil 2008, Oude Breuil et al 2011).\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Le Point\/AFP (2014) Trafic de b\u00e9b\u00e9s roms: 5 \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tpersonnes interpell\u00e9es \u00e0 Nancy et Bastia.
