Tiivistelmä: | This study analyses a model of the migrant smuggling (here as: smlg.) market with smugglers differing in the capacity to exploit their clients' labour at the destination (here as: destn). It is suggested that destn. countries with limited resources may prefer to improve the apprehension of smugglers and their clients at the border rather than inland, despite that either one of these anti-smlg. measures would reduce migrant exploitation. The reason is twofold: 1. even if the resulting improvement in border apprehension alone cannot eliminate smlg., it can do so when combined with a severe penalty for smlg. 2. even if it is impracticable to set the penalty for smlg. sufficiently high, improved border apprehension reduces smlg. by discouraging existing exploitative smugglers from smlg., while improved inland apprehension either maintains or even increases it by inducing them and those currently not smlg. to take up non-exploitative smuggling. |
