Description:
|
The article is based on 48 Belgian judicial files (27 Nigerian and 21 Moroccan ones), that concern the
practices that created victims of human trafficking from Nigeria and Morocco in Belgium and some neighbouring
countries. The most efficient criminal entrepreneurs are the very flexible ones, who continuously adapt,
learn, dare to diversify, and sometimes also to internationalize (but mostly with African partners). An important difference
with the Eastern European criminals, is that the Africans most of the time do not
look for coverage of their practices through legal firms. Their learning practice remains re-active; until 2012 it does not
really become pro-active. There is no pro-active longer term vision and no intention to create legal structures that hide
their praxis.
