Product Description
The book illustrates the law enforcement efforts against drug trafficking, combining the examination of sector regulations with the analysis of the most modern investigative methods used by the judiciary and police forces. Compared to the traditional textbook-type setting, anti-drug investigations are analyzed in a purely “dynamic” key, within which the examination of criminal cases and related investigative techniques aim at the development of appropriate investigative “models” suited to different criminal situations that, from time to time, may be envisaged by investigative bodies. Complex operations concerning large national and transnational organizations are dealt with in depth , then moving on to expound the investigations aimed at punishing individual illegal activities linked to production and trading of drugs. The book ends with an in-depth examination of the economic and financial aspects related to drug trafficking, with particular reference to the laundering of “narco revenues” and the seizure of illegally accumulated wealth.
