Terrorism and Drug Trafficking in the 1990s (RISCT Research Institute for the Study of Conflict and Terrorism) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Though the risk of a global nuclear war may have receded, new insidious and dangerous threats to the stability of established democracies have emerged. Terrorism, drug-trafficking and organized crime now preoccupy police and security services in Europe and beyond. This book assembles in one volume a collection of nine outstanding studies by leading experts in these fields, all of them originally published in the last four years. Alison Jamieson; whose work on the Italian red brigades, the Mafia, drug trafficking and witness collaboration as a means of countering terrorism is well represented, provides an up-to-the-minute introductory overview. Paul Wilkinson and Steve Bruce, widely acknowledged authorities on Irish terrorism, write on republican and Loyalist violence respectively. For researchers, students and the libraries that serve them this book not only brings together an unusual range of data in a concise and convenient form, but will readily facilitate comparative case studies in a European context.
