Violence without borders : the internationalization of crime and conflict, Paperback / softback Book

Violence without borders : the internationalization of crime and conflict Paperback / softback

Part of the World Bank policy research report series

Paperback / softback

Description

Just like nearly every aspect of human experience, crime, civil conflict, and violence have become increasingly global.

Around the world, civil wars, of which there are more today than at any time since the end of World War II, displace greater numbers of people ever further from their countries of origin.

Transnational terrorism has reached a 50-year high, in terms of both its incidence and the number of reported fatalities.

Cross-border criminal markets illicit drugs, human trafficking, wildlife trade, and so forth take a heavy toll on the many societies they affect.

This Policy Research Report, The Internationalisation of Crime, Conflict, and Violence, offers a unified framework to take stock of the theoretical and empirical literature on crime, conflict, and violence and to discuss how the international community organizes itself to address security as a regional and global public good.

The increasingly global effects of crime and conflict require an equally global response to violence
