Crime

Topic 8 : Globalisation

Globalisation, state crime and green crime.

Castells: global criminal economy worth over £1 trillion per year.

Examples of Global Crime: human, drug and weapon trafficking

Global Risk Consciousness: greater awareness/fear of Globalisation's negative consequences.
This creates changes in the law, such as border control, immigrants being detained and
cooperation between nations.

Hobby and Dunningham: ‘glocal crime’ = Global networking to use economic crime as a new
opportunity

Glenny: ‘McMafia’ = Russian officials buy large amounts of product when the stocks crashed at
the collapse of communism. They hired gangs to protect their money, creating a ‘brand’ Mafia,
rather than a traditional ‘family’ Mafia.

Green Crime

Primary Green Crime: direct damage to environment

Secondary Green Crime: actions that may cause damage as a second impact

Traditional Crime: breaking the law – problematic because crime is globalised and defined by
people

Zemiology (green crime): any harm to the environment. Hard to define what a quantifiable
amount of harm is enough to penalize.

Examples of primary green crime:
● littering
● deforestation
● air pollution
● water pollution
● harm to animals

Statistics:

● Deforestation: 1960-1990 – 1/5th of the tropical rainforest was destroyed by the
government.
