Risk society is oftentimes used to investigate global risk that challenge our traditional societies and push them to move from being mostly concerned with the distribution of wealth into societies that are mostly preoccupied with the distribution of risks. Migration appears to be a challenge that most societies in today's world confront, but what appears is that societies in the Global North are not attempting to address the issue in terms of risk redistribution, but rather seek to outsource the whole challenge to other countries. For instance, the EU is outsourcing the challenge and risk of migration management to transit North African countries, which is the opposite of what Risk Society Theory predicts.
