This is the only book on international white collar crime, newly revised and expanded for the second edition. Drawing from numerous case studies, it shows how international criminals exploit globalization and new technologies to pursue economic gain and political violence.

Contemporary transnational criminals take advantage of globalization, trade liberalization, and emerging new technologies to commit a diverse range of crimes. By moving money, goods, services, and people instantaneously they are able to serve purposes of pure economic gain or political violence. This book examines the rise of international economic crime and recent strategies to combat it in the United States and abroad. Focusing on the role of international relations, it draws from case studies in a diverse range of criminality from money laundering to tax evasion. Newly revised and expanded, the second edition of International White Collar Crime incorporates recent developments and updated case studies. New chapters on environmental crimes and securities enforcement under the Dodd–Frank Act continue to make it an essential tool for practicing business, law, and law enforcement.

Bruce Zagaris is a partner with the law firm of Berliner, Corcoran and Rowe, LLP, Washington, DC. A regular consultant to corporations, national governments, and international organizations, he has handled numerous white collar cases involving tax, money laundering, and corruption as part of his private practice.
