Certain types of crime are increasingly being perpetrated across national borders and require a unified regional or global response to combat them. Transnational criminal law covers both the international treaty obligations which require States to introduce specific substantive measures into their domestic criminal law schemes, and an allied procedural dimension concerned with the articulation of inter-state cooperation in pursuit of the alleged transnational criminal.The Routledge Handbook of Transnational Criminal Law provides a comprehensive overview of the system which is designed to regulate cross border crime. The book looks at the history and development of the system, asking questions as to the principal purpose and effectiveness of transnational criminal law as it currently stands. The book brings together experts in the field, both scholars and practitioners, in order to offer original and forward-looking analyses of the key elements of the transnational criminal law. The book is split into several parts for ease of reference:Fundamental concepts surrounding the international regulation of transnational crime. Procedures for international cooperation against alleged transnational criminals including jurisdiction, police cooperation, asset recovery and extradition. Substantive crimes covered by transnational criminal law analysing the current legal provisions for each crime. The implementation of transnational criminal law and the effectiveness of the system of transnational criminal law.With chapters from over 25 authorities in the field, this handbook will be an invaluable reference work for student and academics and for policy makers with an interest in transnational criminal law.

As international society has globalized, so too has crime. Both countries and the collective international community have struggled to deal with criminal activity that has global proportions and effects – from international crimes like genocide and war crimes to transnational crimes like terrorism and trafficking. The systems of law designed to suppress these crimes are complex and often poorly understood; thus, this book brings together a concise and lucid explication and analysis of international and transnational criminal law.A collaboration between leading legal scholars Robert J. Currie, Gillian MacNeil, and Justin J. Mohammed, this book is designed to help those who work in criminal law and international law respectively speak the legal language of the other, and to provide accessible explanations of the legal tools and doctrines. It highlights the work of international courts, the use of treaties, and the investigational techniques that operate in this area, but its focus on Canada makes it an invaluable resource for Canadian lawyers, judges, researchers, students and law enforcement personnel. This updated and revised 4th edition builds on the success of earlier editions, which have been cited by the Supreme Court of Canada and other Canadian courts, in providing up-to-date accounts of international developments, Canadian case law and practice, and relevant literature.
