Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.

This insightful Research Agenda explores the varied manifestations of organised crime, both on the street and through transnational enterprises, and reveals its impact on the integrity of the financial system. Leading academics identify measures which would disrupt and discourage these threats, however sophisticated, and consider avenues for future research.

Taking an interdisciplinary approach to the multi-faceted dangers posed by organised crime, the book begins with an overview of the misconceptions surrounding the topic, evaluating the limitations of the traditional justice system in addressing corruption and conspiracy. Progressive chapters illustrate a practical knowledge of addressing such threats, identifying new directions for the study of concepts such as organised crime and power, as well as tackling the ways in which enterprises use money laundering to clean their proceeds. They also point to ways in which the law will need to develop to address the opportunities for cyber-enabled crime facilitated by recent technological developments.

An engaging platform for future scholarship, this topical Research Agenda will prove a thought-provoking read for academics and policymakers in the areas of criminal justice law, criminology, corruption, and economic crime.
