Produktbeschreibung
The term transnational organised crime has been used to describe different realities, depending on the specific category of crime and region of the world concerned. Volume 2 of Transnational Unconventional Organised Crime focuses on regional and national perspectives. It seeks to explore and understand the complexity of transnational organised crime and unconventional crime in various regional and national incarnations. Globalisation has been identified as an essential factor facilitating transnational crime by removing previously established boundaries. This complicated process of globalisation has led to similar interdependencies amongst countries and cultures with various long-term and multifaceted impacts. This interconnected framework has allowed transnational criminal networks to emerge and adapt, leading to distinctly regional impacts, as shown in this book. This volume aims to promote a better understanding of the challenges inherent to tackling transnational organised crime, which, in turn, can helpfully inform responsible and flexible responses that are tailored to the specific conditions in various regions and countries.
