Origin and Feedback of Migration, Philosophical Aspects: Why Is It Migrated and Which Is the Most Successful?

Abstract

When we think about migration from one country to another, we leave aside both the motivations and those components that migrate most successfully. We only focus on the migration that takes place when there is no other alternative for human beings who risk their lives and leave their homeland. Illicit trafficking, both in influences, pecuniary goods, and stimulant substances, seems to be the predominant flow in recent decades. Its impact on the law and the administration of justice, although it does not have the attention that the tide of displaced people attracts, which puts both their lives and the stability of the countries to which they move at immediate risk, makes it a major problem, since it is the real cause of this problem because it expropriates and exports wealth and devastates countries. This first type of migration has its origin in corruption in public and private institutions, money laundering, influence peddling, people, narcotics, etc. Its social effects in the countries of origin, its great demand in countries receiving capital and pleasure, as well as the difficulty of combating it are alarming. What is of interest in this study, more than a detailed description of this situation, is the epistemological and socio-political reflection of said problem and an examination of possible solutions and the undeniable limitations. The conclusion is that poorly acquired opulence moves first and then induced poverty. Given this original situation, the form of prevention becomes obvious.
