Abstract

The record of these proceedings aspires to create a continuation of the reflection on ideas and inquiries of fact that animated the discussions of the Transnational Organised Crime Conference convened by the Hong Kong Police in March 18–21, 2002. The papers to follow distil many of the issues and problems now encountered in confronting organised crime or ‘serious criminal networks’ in the era of globalisation. The topic of crime, as it is realised at the international level, has become a meeting point for a host of concerns about human security, rapid social change and problems arising from the relentless march of technology. This is reflected in the participation of law enforcement agencies from over forty countries, representing all parts of the world, whose engagement is essential if the toxic and universal effects of organised crime are to be curtailed.
