A rich and timely book, Globalization and Crime explains various complex concepts and developments in understandable terms and in a concise manner without being simplistic at any point. Examples are not merely derived from English-speaking countries, but cover a truly global terrain. General concepts, such as globalization, are all well defined, the glossary is very helpful and ‘further reading’ sections are simply superb. One of those books one wishes to have written oneself

As society becomes increasingly connected through technology and communication,
further research is necessary in order to understand better both the advantages
and challenges globalization poses to society, crime and law enforcement,
for which this book effectively achieves. The chapters are structured logically
and build upon previous ones while constantly referencing each other. The content is both stimulating and thought provoking, forcing the reader to think critically and carefully analyse the material provided. The readability of this book makes it accessible to many audiences in the social sciences. With these points in mind, this book makes a strong contribution to the field and lays a solid
framework for future research and books on this topic

Theoretical Criminology
Globalization and Crime provides a comprehensive and accessible account of the consequences of globalization in the post 9/11 world. It explores crime in the context of increasing international interconnectivity. It explains theories around globalization and how these shed light upon the study of crime. Furthermore, the book examines the challenges the various global flows represent for the nature of governance, state sovereignty and crime control.
Presenting an expert and interdisciplinary summary of complex debates, this book addresses a variety of highly topical issues, including:
- The global war on terror
- Transnational organized crime
- Human smuggling and trafficking
- Global surveillance and policing
- Cybercrime
- Immigration
As part of the Key Approaches to Criminology series, Globalization and Crime offers key pedagogic features ranging from chapter overviews and key terms to study questions and suggestions for further debate. Concise and easy-to-read, this book will prove essential reading for students and academics in criminology, sociology, geography and other social sciences.
'The long awaited synthesis of the sociological literature on globalization together with contemporary criminiological theory. It untimitely manages to be both a useful teaching tool, and a significant contribution to contemporary theorizing about the global system.'
Professor James Sheptycki, York University, Canada
'An indispensable text for criminology students and researchers'
