Reviews

`Occupying an important middle ground between international crimes, such as genocide, and so-called ordinary crimes, like murder and rape, sit the transnational crimes , such as piracy, and cross-border trafficking in persons and prohibited substances. In this splendid book, eminent scholars explore the features and attributes of transnational crimes, their fluid boundaries, and their very raison d'etre within the international legal system.' -- William Schabas, Middlesex University London, UK
