Fighting Organized and Transnational Organized Crime in Canada
نویسنده
چکیده
Organized and transnational organized crime has become a prominent political issue in Canada, as elsewhere. The topic is understudied in Canadian political science, in part because of the inherent difficulties of research. The paper begins a reflection on the politics of organized and transnational organized crime in Canada. How has the Canadian government responded to the threat of organized and transnational organized crime? We suggest that Canadian policies have been dictated by political considerations, often in response to particular crisis. Policies also respond to international pressures. As such, there remain concerns about the comprehensiveness and the effectiveness of Canadian policy in this field. (Please do not quote without author’s permission)
