Summary/Abstract: At the beginning of this paper, the author points out that human trafficking is immanent in all social epochs. As the existing concept of retributive justice embodied in criminal law does not produce appropriate results, it is necessary to consider possibility of applying the concept of restorative justice in the fight against human trafficking. After defining the concept of restorative justice, the author emphasizes the existence of two restorative justice models-diversionary and therapeutic. A special part is dedicated to presenting the results of criminological research on the possibilities of applying restorative justice to human trafficking. In the subsequent parts of the paper, the author presents the possibilities of applying the diversionary and therapeutic model of restorative justice under the legal solutions in the Republic of Serbia. The conclusion emphasizes the need of practitioners to consider the possibilities of applying restorative justice to human trafficking in order to pay special attention to the needs of victims of trafficking.
