Summary/Abstract: Given the current international context, the security of the state cannot be realized independently, but only by developing and enhancing international cooperation. Furthermore, being a member of an international security organization comes with certain risks, considering the current escalation of international tensions and threats. Because of the complexity of the different activity fields, organized crime represents a transnational risk, which must be fought against by all of the states, given the social impact of it. Illegal migration, studied as a component of organized crime, creates a series of social and cultural issues, starting from the entities that support it during the migration process, up to the integration of the migrants in the hosting society. The individuals’ behavior is unpredictable because it is mainly the result of the cultural and religious aspects of their homeland, which are significantly different from the ones of the hosting state. The religious tolerance and the solution to social integration problems can be achieved by intercultural communication. The integration of the migrants brings the hosting state the responsibility of providing a set of rights and obligations, in order to allow the migrants to be engaged in the social, economic and cultural life of the hosting community.
