Author: Aucoin, Ciara Title: Migrant Smuggling and Human Trafficking from Libya to Europe: What does the Media Say? Summary: Clearer media reporting on 'smuggling' and 'trafficking' create a better understanding of the migration crisis. The abuse of migrants by organised criminals, traffickers and armed groups has become a common feature of the current migration crisis in Libya. While not all migrants fall victim to trafficking, many experience some form of threat, coercion or exploitation, and many are subjected to forced labour and prostitution. This study analysed the ways in which a sample of English-language news media covered the topics of migrant smuggling and human trafficking from Libya, and the frequency of words used to denote slavery, abuse and financial transactions.
