Description: "Transnational crime will impact the twenty-first century much in the same way that earlier technological developments changed the face of crime in the twentieth century. This volume assembles seven contributions on important dimensions of transnational crime including trafficking in human beings, intellectual property theft, commercial sexual exploitation of children, how we organize the law enforcement response to transnational crime and terrorism, and how we teach and understand the methodology of different cultures and account for divergent perspectives on social problems." "Teachers, students, and practitioners will benefit from the new data and insightful analysis presented in this volume on the emerging forms of transnational crime and research."--BOOK JACKET.
