Multinational crime: terrorism, espionage, drug and arms trafficking

MARTIN John M

Multinational crime: terrorism, espionage, drug and arms trafficking - Newbury Park, Calif: SAGE Publications, 1992 - 161p. - Studies in crime, law and justice v. 9 .

This book considers multinational systemic crime - crimes by various kinds of organizations that operate across national boundaries and in two or more countries simultaneously. This concept refers to a variety of criminal behaviour systems including, but not limited to, the four crimes examined in this volume: terrorism, espionage, drug and arms trafficking. These offences carry strong connotations of evil, and yet outrage quickly becomes justification when, for example, espionage is carried out in the name of national security.
