Criminal Finances and Organising Crime in Europe

As the European Union is expanding eastward, concerns for crossborder crime and crime control gain a new meaning in Central and Eastern Europe as well as the European Union. What are the implications of illegal markets, flows of illegal monies, and corruption in the context of a rapidly changing political and social framework? What are the hard facts and what are the real challenges? What are the appropriate responses? This volume contains contributions from some of Europe's leading representatives from the academic field and law enforcement, from East and West, to shed light on some of the most pressing issues of European criminal policy today: the structure and dynamics of illegal markets, the functioning and dimensions of illicit money management and money laundering, the many faces of corruption, and the different approaches to combating organized business crime, corruption and financial crime.Van Duyne, Petrus C. is the author of 'Criminal Finances and Organising Crime in Europe', published 2003 under ISBN 9789058500458 and ISBN 9058500454.
