N2 - This book brings together a blue-ribbon assortment of international law schol- ars, all of whom work at the interesting and troubled cross-roads which is the book’s substantive subject matter: namely, the intersection of international and transnational crime, and thus of its legal fields of study (international criminal law (“icl”) and transnational criminal law (“tcl”)). Through 14 essays on a variety of topics, they tackle different skeins of what they identify (in my view, correctly) as the most pressing practical and analytical point regarding crime that is internationalised in any way. This point is that, through the forces and trends which gave rise to globalisation, crime in the early 21st century is becoming more vertically and horizontally integrated than ever before, on a global scale.
