This contemporary Research Agenda examines the threats to stability and sustainability presented by economically motivated crime and misconduct. Featuring contributions from distinguished experts in the field of criminal law and justice, this book proposes avenues for future research into the legal frameworks designed to prevent and manage economic crime and corruption. Barry Rider begins by considering the importance of discouraging economically relevant criminals from undermining the efficacy and stability of global economies. Chapters analyse a myriad of topics, including the economic crime-related repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic, the development of small state financial centres, and the key measures adopted by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to combat corruption. The book concludes by examining comparative perspectives in fighting organised crime, featuring case studies involving human trafficking and issues of compliance. A Research Agenda for Economic Crime and Development will be an essential resource for scholars and academics studying criminal law and justice, economic crime and corruption, and law and development. It will also be beneficial to criminal and regulatory lawyers, policymakers, and researchers interested in the prevention of economic crime.

Organized crime is now a major threat to all industrial and non-industrial countries. Using an inter-disciplinary and comparative approach this book examines the nature of this threat. By analysing the existing, official institutional discourse on organized crime it examines whether or not it has an impact on perceptions of the threat and on the reality of organized crime. The book first part of the book explores both the paradigm and the rationale of policy output in the fight against organized crime, and also exposes the often ‘hidden’ internal assumptions embedded in policy making. The second part examines the perceptions of organized crime as expressed by various actors, for example, the general public in the Balkans and in Japan, the criminal justice system in USA and circles within the international scientific community. Finally, the third part provides an overall investigation into the realities of organized crime with chapters that survey its empirical manifestations in various parts of the world. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international relations, criminology, security studies and practitioners.
