Abstract
Turning to security, the focus sharpens. Like two-door riddles, when one tries to guess how to navigate an ever-changing labyrinth, antitrafficking security requires a process of elimination. This chapter traces the functions of security in counterbalancing criminalisation and human rights. For the analysis data were collected and disaggregated from case summaries and original case transcripts contained in SHERLOC, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime database. The references to security comprised the target content, for which computer-aided text analysis (NVivo 12 Plus) was utilised. From this, security appears to be the third approach that emerges from the initial antithesis between criminalisation and human rights. But what is the meaning of security? Security is not a concrete term but an abstract, Janus-faced one that signifies various qualities or attributes of persons or things. The analysis suggests that there are indeed multiple qualities and attributes of persons or things signified by antitrafficking securities.
