Hver eneste dag blir flyktninger og andre migranter smuglet over noen av verdens farligste grenser. Hva er det som gjør at millioner av mennesker legger sitt eget og sine barns liv i hendene på menneskesmuglere for å la seg frakte over snødekte fjellkjeder, glohete ørkener og åpne hav? 

Hvem er bakmennene, og kvinnene, som muliggjør disse reisene, og hvor går grensen mellom menneskesmugling og menneskehandel? Stemmer egentlig det bildet politikere og media har skapt av smuglere som utelukkende onde og skruppelløse? 

I Makedonia kjører et 80 år gammelt ektepar syriske flyktninger over grensen, skjult under falske høyballer på lasteplanet sitt. Gjennom Sahara kjører akademikeren Abeo turister om dagen og flyktninger om natten. I Middelhavet loser en gammel fisker mennesker bort fra tvungen internering skjult i fiskebåten sin og i Libanon har etablerte reisebyråer endret kundegruppen sin. 

I Libya er slavemarkedene i full drift, torturen en del av hverdagen og menneskerettigheter brytes uten at noen reagerer. Hvordan ender norske skattepenger i hendene på libysk milits?

I over tjue år har Kristina Quintano fulgt menneskesmuglere i og rundt Middelhavet. Med denne boken trekker hun paralleller mellom vår tids menneskesmuglere og fortidens grenseloser. 

Smugler eller grenselos? På innsiden av vår tids største folkevandring tar oss med på innsiden, til dem som muliggjør vår tids største folkevandring. Dette er et unikt portrett av de smuglerne politikerne vil til livs.

A collection of 445 exciting and accessible recipes that celebrate North Africa's vibrant and diverse food culture Extensively researched and twenty years in the making, The North African Cookbook is the largest collection of traditional North African recipes for home cooks. Focusing on the Maghreb region - Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya - The North African Cookbook explores the territory's vast culinary diversity and history.

From Berber, Arabic, and Ottoman influences as well as French, Spanish, and Italian, this cookbook offers a comprehensive overview of how native, as well as European colonialism, influenced the region's traditions today. A wide network of culinary voices from across North Africa guided the project. In a region so vast and so diverse, James Beard award-winning food writer Jeff Koehler looked to many hundreds of experts and locals.

Following two decades of travel across North Africa and a career spent writing in depth about the region and its food, Koehler's extensively researched collection is an exhaustive look at traditional recipes across the Maghreb. Filled with delicious and authentic North African dishes that can easily be recreated at home, this treasure trove of a book brings to life an exciting cuisine that is as varied and fascinating as the countries it covers.
