![Global Crime: An Encyclopedia of Cyber Theft, Weapons Sales, and Other Illegal Activities [2 Volumes] by Reichel, Philip L.](http://www.whiterainbookhouse.com/cdn/shop/files/img_04155311-7178-42c7-a2d0-ff2495550c5d.jpg?v=1703021422)
While many international corporations have benefited from the global economy and distribution of information, globalization has also had serious negative consequences. This important reference work offers students and general readers a critical understanding of how technology, governments, political unrest, war, and economic strife contribute to an increase in global crime.
This A-Z encyclopedia covers key people, events, and organizations and includes key documents that will help readers to understand the numerous problems created by the many transnational crimes that are growing in severity and frequency around the world. Entries address perpetrators and their methods; victims; who really profits; and law enforcement responses. In addition to cyber theft and sales of weapons and narcotics, the set provides a detailed look at global crimes not typically covered, such as corruption, fraudulent medicine, illegal sports betting, organ trafficking, maritime piracy, trafficking in cultural property, and wildlife and forest crime. Although some historical events and people are included, the focus is on recent and contemporary topics.
Philip L. Reichel, PhD, is emeritus professor at the University of Northern Colorado and associate professor at California University of Pennsylvania. He has written several books and authored or co-authored rmore than 40 articles and book chapters.
