Sommario/riassunto

Immigration and its consequences is a substantially contested subject with hugely differing viewpoints. This highly topical area of contestation is examined here with experts from Europe, the USA, Turkey and Israel examining recent developments in the fields of culture conflict, organized crime, victimization and terrorism, all of which intersect to varying degrees with migration and illegal conduct.
