Ending Forced Organ Harvestin Law Ethics and Global Human Rights

This book examines one of the most disturbing and under addressed crimes of our time—the transnational practice of forced organ harvesting. It brings together key U.S. and international documents that illuminate the scope, mechanisms, and human rights implications of organ trafficking and organ removal. This book places the issue of forced organ harvesting within wider discussions of human dignity, bioethics, and global justice. It explores the evolution of U.S. legislative responses, including the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act of 2023, and analyzes how international law and multilateral cooperation can address crimes that blur the boundaries between human trafficking and medical exploitation.
