The Illicit Economy in Turkey
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-4985-9504-9 (ISBN)
This book offers a rare insight into the transnational expansion and various corners of the illicit economy in Turkey including the smuggling of pharmaceuticals, oil, antiquities, drugs, nuclear materials and cigarettes. Mahmut Cengiz and Mitchel P. Roth provide an in depth analysis of the criminals, terrorists, money launderers, and corrupt politicians at the highest levels of the Turkish government. They analyze the unintended consequences of corruption scandals which have resulted in the purging of important law enforcement and intelligence entities formerly responsible for countering terrorism and organized crime threats as well as growing political tensions with the United States.
Mahmut Cengiz is research professor of terrorism, transnational crime and corruption (TraCCC) at George Mason University. Mitchel P. Roth is professor of criminal justice and criminology at Sam Houston State University.
