Though the provision of illicit goods and services is far from being a new phenomenon, today's global economic environment has allowed transnational organized crime an unprecedented capacity to challenge states. The authors of this book examine the trends underlying the explosion of transnational organized crime and consider possible responses. Emphasizing the difficulties encountered by individual states in their efforts to deal with this security dilemma, they highlight the growing importance of multilateral initiatives.

Published in 1999, this book focuses on organized crime as a worldwide phenomenon that has taken great advantage of enabling technology in banking, communications and transportation to build what is probably the first true 'virtual' corporation in the world. It looks at organized crime as a threat to national and international security ironically stemming, in part, from the collapse of the Soviet empire that provided an already thriving, ruthless and well-organized system of graft, corruption and crime with a new lease of life and also unleashed it on to the world scene. Organized crime is also seen as a system of transnational alliances with the potential to destabilize democratic values and institutions; distort regional, if not worldwide, economies; and subvert the international order by allying itself with terrorist organizations, rogue states and developing countries in search of rapid industrialization and market dominance.

The perceived threat of 'transnational organized crime' to Western societies has been of huge interest to politicians, policy makers and social scientists over the last decade. This book considers the origins of this crime, how it has been defined and measured and the appropriateness of governments' policy responses. The contributors argue that while serious harm is often caused by transnational criminal activity - for example, the trafficking in human beings - the construction of that criminal activity as an external threat obscures the origins of these crimes in the markets for illicit goods and services within the 'threatened' societies. As such, the authors question the extent to which global crime can be controlled through law enforcement initiatives, and alternative policy initiatives are considered. The authors also question whether transnational organised crime will retain its place on the policy agendas of the United Nations and European Union in the wake of the 'War on Terror'.

This two-volume work offers a comprehensive examination of the distressing topics of transnational crime and the implications for global security. National security is a key concern for individual nations, regions, and the global community, yet globalism has led to the perfusion of transnational crime such that it now poses a serious threat to the national security of governments around the world. Whether attention is concentrated on a particular type of transnational crime or on broader concerns of transnational crime generally, the security issues related to preventing and combatting transnational crime remain of top-priority concern for many governments. Transnational Crime and Global Security has been carefully curated to provide students, scholars, professionals, and consultants of criminal justice and security studies with comprehensive information about and in-depth analysis of contemporary issues in transnational crime and global security. The first volume covers such core topics as cybercrime, human trafficking, and money laundering and also contains infrequently covered but nevertheless important topics including environmental crime, the weaponization of infectious diseases, and outlaw motorcycle gangs. The second volume is unique in its coverage of security issues related to such topics as the return of foreign terrorist fighters, using big data to reinforce security, and how to focus efforts that encourage security cooperation.

Much attention has been devoted to transnational terrorism over the past decade – and rightly so. Yet there is another transnational threat which has been expanding exponentially, but with a much lower profile, over the past two decades. Transnational Organized Crime or TOC is much more likely than terrorism to directly threaten the individual citizen of any western nation. In many ways it constitutes its own form of terrorism. Who does not consistently worry about identity theft, credit card fraud, or phishing? How much money and time does the average internet user spend on anti-virus software and other security measures, or on monitoring bank and credit card statements or credit reports? Thank TOC, which dominates the financial fraud sector. How many American and European jobs are lost due to product piracy in Asia or Africa? How many billions of taxpayer Dollars or Euros are spent on keeping up – or trying to catch up – with human smugglers? Thank TOC again. Not to mention the global drug trade, which now binds not only the single largest slice of law enforcement budgets, but is also diverting naval vessels away from their military missions. Speaking of naval vessels – there are clear indications that TOC has its hand in Somalian piracy as well. Then there is the nexus of TOC and terrorism. Latin American drug cartels have long employed terrorism in order to discourage government efforts to combat them. Conversely, terrorist groups such as the IRA have engaged in organized crime in order to finance their operations. Middle Eastern and Central Asian terrorist groups have entered the global drug trade in a big way. Not to forget the involvement of rogue governments in drug and weapons trafficking, counterfeiting, cybercrime and trademark piracy. Governments in North America, Europe and Asia have recognized the threat. They have also recognized that a transnational threat can only be defeated through transnational cooperation. The Transatlantic community conducted an in-depth conference of experts to discuss dismantling TOC networks. The Lisbon symposium was held in May 2011, but the final report was only released through the US State Department and the European Union in November. Pacific nations held a similar conference in Phuket in October, and quickly released the summary of proceedings. The United States government's National Security Council released the US strategy for combating transnational organized crime, classifying TOC as a national security threat. The US strategy – released in July – places great emphasis on international cooperation as well. The complete text of all three documents is reprinted in this issue of Hampton Roads International Security Quarterly. We wish you interesting reading.

This book constitutes the first major study showing (1) when transnational organized crime is likely to use corruption and violence tactics, (2) when transnational criminal activities most affect individual and state security, and (3) when the negative consequences of these tactics and activities can be most successfully combated.
