The Palgrave Handbook of Criminal and Terrorism Financing Law – eBook

The Palgrave Handbook of Criminal and Terrorism Financing Law (PDF) focuses on how criminal and terrorist assets pose significant and unrelenting threats to the integrity, security, and stability of contemporary societies.

In response to the funds generated by or for organised crime and transnational terrorism, strategies have been elaborated at regional, national, and international levels for laws, organisations and procedures, and economic systems.

Reflecting on these strands, this handbook brings together leading experts from different jurisdictions across America, Europe, Africa and Asia and from different disciplines, including law, international studies, criminology, political science, and business.

The authors examine the institutional and legal responses, set within the context of both practice and policy, with a view to critiquing these actions on the grounds of effective delivery and compliance with legality and rights.

In addition, the PDF ebook draws upon the experiences of the many senior practitioners and policy-makers who participated in the research project which was funded by a major Arts and Humanities Research Council grant.

This comprehensive collection is a must-read for academics and practitioners alike with an interest in money laundering, security, terrorism financing, and international relations.

Reviews

“Money is the motive for organized crime and the essential ingredient for terror. Yet our efforts to “follow the money” have proven inadequate. In this impressive collection of essays, diverse experts explore distinct but interlocking aspects of our efforts to combat financial crime. The result is a valuable study of CFT/AML and a collective argument that it is time to fundamentally shift the paradigm”. — John Cassara, former U.S. intelligence officer, Treasury Special Agent, and AML/CFT author
