Human Trafficking di Uni Eropa: Pendekatan Konstruktivis Atas Sikap Uni Eropa Terhadap Pemberitaan Media

Averil Khalisha Paramesti, Henny Saptatia Drajati Nugrahani

Abstract

Perdagangan manusia di Uni Eropa merupakan sebuah masalah yang terus menerus mendapatkan perhatian, dan begitu intensnya perhatian ini menimbulkan sejumlah pertanyaan, yakni konstruksi ‘perdagangan manusia Eropa’ sebagai ‘perdagangan budak kulit putih baru’ oleh media Eropa, pengaruh konstruksi ini terhadap bagaimana negara-negara anggota Uni Eropa menyikapi isu perdagangan manusia, dan hubungannya dengan politik internasional dan globalisasi secara lebih luas. Menggunakan konsep konstruktivisme yang menyatakan bahwa realitas dikonstruksi secara sosial oleh sejarah dan masyarakat, tulisan ini mengeksplorasi peranan media dalam mengonstruksikan ‘perdagangan manusia’ sebagai sebuah tindakan kriminal serta dan menganalisa sikap negara (state) yang menggunakan konstruksi isu tersebut untuk menjustifikasi ketakutan mereka akan “ancaman perbatasan akibat integrasi Uni Eropa.” Tulisan ini diharapkan dapat menyoroti peranan media dalam membentuk representasi-representasi yang kemudian dianggap sebagai ‘realitas’ dan pengaruh ‘realitas’ tersebut terhadap kebijakan luar negeri aktor international.
