Organised Crime and the Law provides a summary of the laws and policies that have been implemented in the UK and Ireland to combat the organised crime problem. It also evaluates the modifications made to these legal systems with regard to the avoidance, detection, prosecution, and sentencing of this type of criminal activity. Although the concept of organised crime is debatable, states' legal responses see it and its component offences as unproblematic. This book presents a methodical theological analysis of these national criminal laws, evidentiary laws, and civil procedures.
The conflict between the needs of public safety and risk aversion, as well as other modifications, is the main subject of the book Organised Crime and the Law. Specifically, it highlights similarities and differences between the various jurisdictions in the UK and Ireland, taking into consideration the same history of counterterrorism measures and subversive threats. It also looks at how much policy transfer is visible in the UK and Ireland when it comes to copying US responses to organised crime.
