Abstract

Traditional threats to international security do not come from nation-states any longer, but from nonstate actors who challenge the legitimacy and authority of the state. Thus, the most dangerous threat to international security is represented by organized crime and terrorism. Though organized crime is not a new phenomenon, new communication and information technologies have eased its operations and transformed it from a hierarchical organization into a “social network”. This criminal “network” has proved to be flexible, dynamic, elusive to initiatives by law enforcement authorities and adaptable to changes, challenging by far the fight against transnational organized crime.
