Abstract

Illegal migration is a global phenomenon, Romania being no stranger to it. In post-modern society, the attempt to analyze this type of phenomenon is not without obstacles, given its dynamics, the proportions reached, as well as the actors involved, whether it is migrants, traffickers or authorities. From a criminological point of view, a possible path to be followed in the analytical approach is therational choice theory, but although this model of analysis is a valid one, taking into account its limitations, it is necessary to compensate them by elements derived from other types of theories used in criminological science.
