Despite vague cultural notions of romance and adventure, smuggling is anything but a victimless crime. Like any other illicit market with huge potential rewards, it has a huge capacity for violence and exploitation. Vulnerable migrants forking out huge sums to be trafficked to hoped for safety, expendable drug mules paid a pittance to carry narcotics across borders, corrupt soldiers stripping a country of its natural wealth - these are all real-world scenarios.

In The Business of Crime, VICE World News looks at different parts of the criminal economy, separating fact from myth. In this episode, we look at the global smuggling trade – the factors that drive it and why business is booming just as much as ever.
