Irregular Migration: Incentives and Institutional and Social Enforcement

Author

  • Alessandra Venturini

Abstract

National and international migration laws determine the legal or illegal status of a migrant. For any given legislation the number of illegal migrants depends on the social-political and economic conditions of the sending countries and on the organizations which favour frontier transit, but also on push-pull forces in the host countries.
