Around the world, civil wars, of which there are more today than at any time since the end of World War II, displace greater numbers of people ever further from their countries of origin. Transnational terrorism has reached a 50-year high, in terms of both its incidence and the number of reported fatalities. Cross-border criminal markets—illicit drugs, human trafficking, wildlife trade, and so forth—take a heavy toll on the many societies they affect. This Policy Research Report, The Internationalization of Crime, Conflict, and Violence, offers a unified framework to take stock of the theoretical and empirical literature on crime, conflict, and violence and to discuss how the international community organizes itself to address security as a regional and global public good. The increasingly global effects of crime and conflict require an equally global response to violence. 2020-02-18T15:07:20Z 2020-02-18T15:07:20Z 2020-06-25 Book https://documents.worldbank.org/en/publication/documents-reports/documentdetail/794861593117762073/violence-without-borders-the-internationalization-of-crime-and-conflict 978-1-4648-1452-5 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/33330 English Policy Research Reports; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank Washington, DC: World Bank Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Publication
