A definiting image of the new wave of globalization-and the attempts to hold it back -is a newly arrived migrant on a European beach,clutching a mobile phone and hoping for a new life.Never before have rich countries raised thier walls so high to keep out refugees and the poor.Yet never have people tried so hard to leap over them anyway.
欧洲尝试去阻止的全球化浪潮的一个典型形象就是一个在欧洲海滩紧握着手机并且渴望新生活的新来的移民。以前富裕的国家从来没有竖起高高的围墙阻止难民和穷人的到来。难民和穷人也从来没有如此费力地越过围墙。

People-smuggling is just another part of the vast decentralized organized-crime economy.Those in the trade are not necessarily evil or part of a grand conspiracy：they are ordinary folk drawn into organized crime by profits and the prospect of a better life.And polices,particularly in Europe,that are interested to stop migration often have the effect only of rendering it more exploitative and dangerous.
偷渡者只是这庞大分散，有组织的犯罪经济的另一部分。交易中的那些人不一定是恶人，不一定是这阴谋集团中的一份子：他们被利益和对美好生活的期望吸引而参与有组织犯罪的平民百姓。对阻止移民感兴趣的尤其是欧洲的政策，经常只会起到使这件事情变得更加具有剥削性和危险性质的作用。
