Inhaltsangabe

Thirteen chapters focus on the historical context, social organization, and political ramifications of human smuggling across national borders as a global phenomenon. While some smuggling involves trafficking in humans as commodities coercing young women into prostitution, for example increasingly, it is a matter of moving migrants who are willing to risk the dangers of a clandestine journey to seek better living standards or escape political persecution and disasters in a world with ever more restrictive asylum policies. Contributors look at patterns of migrant smuggling as well as the social organization of those who undertake human smuggling as a criminal venture and the state policies that serve to keep them in business.
