Abstract
TPPO (Tindak Pidana Perdagangan Orang) or human trafficking cases that are often published by many news media in Indonesia in June and July 2023 are not new cases happening in the world . The cases are the models of exploitation de l'homme par l'homme or exploitation of man by man postulated by Marx. The cases are closely related to what is more popularly called slavery. The cases happen when a person or a group of persons take illegal benefit from a person or some people. To have a starting point, this article explores how human trafficking and slavery cases are told in a novel. Then, the story is reflected to the realities gathered from some news related to human trafficking or slavery which have happened in the world from the past to the present time. As a literary reference, this article presents the reading result of Forrest Carter’s Watch for Me on The Mountain that tells how white people kidnap and sell female and male native people of America especially Apache people to the other white people. The whites or the slave masters force the native people, male and female, to work for them in their plantation or mining without salary or wage. The slave masters think that their slaves belong to them. This article uses historicism theory to conduct this literature research. It finds how human trafficking and slavery cases happen in the world and make the phenomena lessons to learn. It underlines that if a human enjoys exploiting the other humans, human trafficking cases will endlessly happen. Secondly, if Nietzsche ‘s a will to power is expressed in negative actions, human trafficking will continuously happen. It becomes a neverending nightmare
