Coercion, Violence, and Vulnerability Conclusion Epilogue AppendixReviewsRather than conceiving human smuggling only as a business organised for criminal profit this book shows that smuggling is part of a broader trend of social transformations with the most innovative chapter being on the links between smuggling and state formation and rebellion in the context of Kurdistan. This book about smuggling in the Eastern Mediterranean is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand not only the internal structures of human smuggling but also its links to the external environment. Ilse van Liempt, Assistant Professor in Urban Geography and Qualitative Research Methods in the Human Geography Department, Utrecht University This book essentially contributes to understanding human smuggling in the Eastern Mediterranean and beyond. It is inspiring how it addresses human smuggling in the context of broader (geo)political and social transformation processes at the local, regional and global level. It not only complements existing knowledge but sparks new avenues of discussion on human smuggling. A much needed perspective and a great enrichment. Veronika Bilger, Programme Manager - Research, International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD) This book presents a fascinating and well discussed account of human smuggling in the Mediterranean.
