Combating organized crime: A study on undercover policing and the follow-the-money strategy
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Empirical research on organized crime policies is scarce. As a consequence, debates and policies lack a firm empirical basis and are mainly based upon normative grounds and untested assumptions. The aim of this study is to contribute to the empirical evidence by giving insight into the practice and results of two counterstrategies to organized crime in the Netherlands: the criminal justice approach and the financial approach (‘follow-themoney’). For the criminal justice approach, it focuses on a specific method of criminal investigation: undercover policing (chapters 2 and 3). For the financial approach, it looks into what organized crime offenders actually do with their money (chapter 4) as well as the efforts of law enforcement agencies to confiscate criminal earnings (chapter 5). In this summary, we will explain the data we use and highlight the main empirical results (section S.1), we will discuss the methodological strengths as well as the weaknesses (section S.2), we will explore the possible implications of our results for organized crime policies (section S.3), and we will make suggestions for further research (section S.4).
