Making a Killing explores the often-overlooked world of terrorist financing and the involvement of the international banking system. In order to address the threat of terrorist organizations in a post-9\/11 world - and how they are funded and financed in particular - the international community has constructed a vast architecture of counterterrorist finance laws, policies, and institutions.Connecting the fields of security studies, political economy, and finance, Ian Oxnevad argues that a bank's institutional link to a state (as a state-owned bank or a bank with strong state connections) will protect it from any enforcement action for violations of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing regulations. In the face of states blocking such enforcement actions, these regulations prove ineffective in preventing the financing of terrorism, as the state's self-interest supersedes its interest in preventing terrorist financing.Making a Killing seeks to assess how effective new laws and regulations have been, as well as to identify best practices for future attempts to counter the financing of terrorism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ian Michael Oxnevad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 022800876X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780228008767\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 5.91w x 0.87d","brand":"Ian Michael Oxnevad","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43988469907711,"sku":"9780228008767","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_702e6aa5-b350-4561-9a96-1b07c374bff2.jpg?v=1683294660","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/making-a-killing-ian-michael-oxnevad-9780228008767","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
