Who are the smugglers of Chinese people? How is Chinese human smuggling organized in the Netherlands? Using unique and hitherto undisclosed information from court files covering the years 1996-2003, this study provides in-depth insights into the manner in which smugglers interact and how they organize their activities. Characteristics such as the ethnicity, nationality, age, and the gender of the offenders are examined, as well as the extent to which they are involved in other criminal activities such as drug trafficking or the exploitation of the people they smuggle. From a historical perspective, this study also debates whether the smuggling of Chinese individuals has evolved over the years. Finally, the implications for, and consequences of, law enforcement policies are discussed.

Four years after the smuggling ship Golden Venture, carrying nearly 300 Chinese migrants, ran aground off Queens, New York. Chinese migrant trafficking into the United States persists. This illegal immigration is organized by highly effective alien smuggling organizations using routes involving more than 30 countries and earning hundreds of millions of dollars. The authors of this volume examine the roots and logistics of this growth industry as well as the "push" and "pull" factors - such as unemployment and population pressures - that are fueling the Chinese exodus to the land known as the "Beautiful Country."

In a country long associated with the trade in opiates, the Chinese government has for decades applied extreme measures to curtail the spread of illicit drugs, only to find that the problem has worsened. Burma is blamed as the major producer of illicit drugs and conduit for the entry of drugs into China. Which organizations are behind the heroin trade? What problems and prospects of drug control in the so-called “Golden Triangle” drug-trafficking region are faced by Chinese and Southeast Asian authorities? In The Chinese Heroin Trade, noted criminologists Ko-Lin Chin and Sheldon Zhangexamine the social organization of the trafficking of heroin from the Golden Triangle to China and the wholesale and retail distribution of the drug in China. Based on face-to-face interviews with hundreds of incarcerated drug traffickers, street-level drug dealers, users, and authorities, paired with extensive fieldwork in the border areas of Burma and China and several major urban centers in China and Southeast Asia, this volume reveals how the drug trade has evolved in the Golden Triangle since the late 1980s. Chin and Zhang also explore the marked characteristics of heroin traffickers; the relationship between drug use and sales in China; and how China compares to other international drug markets. The Chinese Heroin Trade is a fascinating, nuanced account of the world of high-risk drug trafficking in a tightly-controlled society.

This book examines the impact of Asian transnational organised crime on the United States. It looks into the structure, activity, and harms of Asian transnational organised crime -- including the multiple criminal groups and organisations involved (secret societies, tongs, triads, gangs, drug cartels, criminal networks, etc.), the multiple goods and services that constitute criminal markets (drug production and trafficking, human smuggling and trafficking, money laundering, and the violence attendant to these crimes), and the multiple nations and national components (China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, Japan, Thailand, the Philippines, and Cambodia in addition to the United States) that might be involved.
