Organised crime in the twenty-first century is a knowledge war that poses an incalculable global threat to the world economy and harm to society - the economic and social costs are estimated at upwards of £20 billion a year for the UK alone (SOCA 2006/7). This book offers an approach to the tackling of this area by exploring how it works through the conceptual framework of a business enterprise.
