Add your own review!

Overview

A pervasive and insidious menace thrives in the shadows of societies around the world, affecting millions of people: serious, organized crime. From heart-wrenching tales of human trafficking to the intricate webs of the illegal drug trade and the digital labyrinth of cybercrime, the impact of organized crime resonates everywhere, leaving scars on individuals, families, and entire communities. The actual cost of this criminal underworld remains shrouded, and the pressing question lingers: What can halt the erosion of societal well-being and restore a sense of security? Economic and Societal Impact of Organized Crime: Policy and Law Enforcement Interventions is a wealth of insight into the critical monitoring, prevention, and interventions of organized criminal activities. Edited by the distinguished professor, Alicia Danielsson, an authority in Comparative and EU law, this multidisciplinary anthology unveils the layers of complexity that lie beneath organized crime's surface. Drawing upon contributions from various sectors, the book brings to light real-life stories, empirical findings, and case studies that dissect the psychological, physical, and economic toll exacted by these crimes. But this time goes further, examining the broader societal repercussions, from trust erosion in institutions to the exacerbation of inequality and poverty. For academic scholars yearning to comprehend and combat this global peril, this book offers an intellectual sanctuary. It navigates the intricate pathways of criminal networks, corrupt facilitators, and the responses of law enforcement and policymakers. By fostering a comprehensive, evidence-based approach that prioritizes human well-being and community resilience, this work serves as a roadmap to confronting organized crime head-on. As readers embark on a journey through the pages of this volume, they equip themselves with the knowledge and tools to not only understand the depths of this challenge but also to contribute to a world where the grip of organized crime is loosened, and the foundations of security and justice are fortified.
