Discuss globalization and how it has increased transnational crime
What will be an ideal response?
Globalization refers to the process of creating transnational markets and political and legal systems and has shifted the focus of crime from a local to a world perspective. Globalization began when large companies decided to establish themselves in foreign markets by adapting their products or services to the local culture. As the Internet and communication revolution unfolded, companies were able to establish instant communications with their far-flung corporate empires. While globalization can improve the standard of living in third world nations by providing jobs and training, it can also be a device for criminal cartels to avoid prosecution and regulation while expanding their markets and profits and creating more opportunities for criminal activity.
