SPATIO-TEMPORAL PATTERN AND INFLUENCING FACTORS OF CHILD TRAFFICKING IN HUBEI PROVINCE

Child trafficking, the great harmful crime, has extremely serious impact on families. Since most of previous studies mainly worked on the pattern of the country, and it is urgent to concentrate on high-risk areas and key groups. In this research, we take Hubei, one of the provinces with high incidence of child trafficking in China, as the study area. We used text analysis, statistical analysis and spatial analysis to explore the spatial-temporal characteristics and influencing factors of child trafficking in Hubei. The results show that: 1) The gender-age distribution of trafficked children in Hubei shows a Chinese character "Gong" shape. Most of them are concentrated in the ages of 1-6 years and 13-17 years. More males than females are trafficked, mainly trafficked from cites. 2) In terms of time, the crime of trafficking in children has shown a trend of "peak" shape. It is at a high incidence stage from 1985 to 2000. The incidence rate in the summer, Sunday, jubilant festivals, New Year's Day, winter vacation and summer vacation are significantly higher than others. 3) In terms of city level pattern, there is a high incidence area, Wuhan city. In terms of county level pattern, it is manifested as the spatial pattern of "twocolds and twohots". From the micro level, child trafficking is more common in residential land and traffic facilities land. Village, street, station are the most typical micro-locations. Trafficked places differs in different age and gender groups. 4) The number of trafficked children in Hubei is significantly correlated with the population sex ratio and urbanization rate.
