Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, grade: 4, University of Ibadan, language: English, abstract: This work articulates that Nigeria’s security is troubled by transnational crimes prevalent in West Africa by making an important argument that since West African states lack the capacity to uphold the basic demands of statehood within their territorial domains, they unavoidably serve as safe havens for trans-organized criminal networks, which has grave implications to Nigeria’s domestic concerns.

Book Synopsis Banditry and Security Crisis in Nigeria by : Al Chukwuma Okoli
Download or read book Banditry and Security Crisis in Nigeria written by Al Chukwuma Okoli and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-10 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the growing phenomenon of armed banditry in Nigeria and its implication for national security. Nigeria’s banditry crisis and deepening security challenges are fuelled by the existence of vast un(der)governed hinterland and trans-border spaces where various non-state armed groups operate unhindered and outside of the law, engaging in various forms of transnational crime. This book explores the activities of these groups to assess the nature and significance of banditry as a complex threat to security. It does so against the backdrop of reports of increased bandit attacks on farms, markets, mining sites, villages and rural communities, and the rising tide of violent crimes in Nigeria, especially the northern region. This book analyses the factors that are responsible for the emergence of banditry as a recent national and transnational security threat and outlines the contemporary dynamics of Nigeria’s banditry crisis and how it can be mitigated. This book will be of interest to researchers and students in the field of African Studies, International Relations, Security and Strategic Studies, Political Studies, Peace and Conflict Studies, as well as policymakers and practitioners interested in complex security threats and their implications in Nigeria and beyond.
Book Synopsis Terrorism and Transnational Security Threats in West Africa: by : Adebayo E. Adeyemi PhD
Download or read book Terrorism and Transnational Security Threats in West Africa: written by Adebayo E. Adeyemi PhD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-09-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it could be arguably stated that West Africa has achieved remarkable and sustainable progress in the areas of democratic governance and economic growth, the subregion, over the past few years, has been challenged by terrorism and other transnational security threats. Innocent civilians are continuously killed, security operatives and providers of humanitarian assistance are targeted, and properties and infrastructures are wantonly destroyed, thus culminating in significant displacement of people and acute poverty. If these developments are not carefully and timely addressed, they are capable of eroding progress so far recorded. It is against this background that this book examines the different manifestations of terrorism and related transnational security challenges in West Africa, with a view to exploring the internal and external sources and drivers of instability, establishing the linkages between terrorism and transnational threats, and reviewing the various steps taken in recent time to strengthen the subregions capacity to prevent and address the menace of terrorism and other security challenges and make necessary policy recommendations based on comprehensive best practices.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book Synopsis Transnational Crime and Global Security by : Philip L. Reichel
Download or read book Transnational Crime and Global Security written by Philip L. Reichel and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume work offers a comprehensive examination of the distressing topics of transnational crime and the implications for global security. National security is a key concern for individual nations, regions, and the global community, yet globalism has led to the perfusion of transnational crime such that it now poses a serious threat to the national security of governments around the world. Whether attention is concentrated on a particular type of transnational crime or on broader concerns of transnational crime generally, the security issues related to preventing and combatting transnational crime remain of top-priority concern for many governments. Transnational Crime and Global Security has been carefully curated to provide students, scholars, professionals, and consultants of criminal justice and security studies with comprehensive information about and in-depth analysis of contemporary issues in transnational crime and global security. The first volume covers such core topics as cybercrime, human trafficking, and money laundering and also contains infrequently covered but nevertheless important topics including environmental crime, the weaponization of infectious diseases, and outlaw motorcycle gangs. The second volume is unique in its coverage of security issues related to such topics as the return of foreign terrorist fighters, using big data to reinforce security, and how to focus efforts that encourage security cooperation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigeria is the most dynamic country on the African continent. Yet the legacy of colonialism, deep-rooted corruption, exposure to climate change and the proliferation of small arms have created a precarious security situation that holds back the country's potential for peace and prosperity.

Book Synopsis The Crime Paradox by : Alexandre Bish
Download or read book The Crime Paradox written by Alexandre Bish and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report analyzes the Janus-faced relationship between violence and illicit markets in the country: illicit economies fuel violence and instability in some contexts, but exert a stabilizing influence in others. It uses case studies - including the prohibition of fishing in the Lake Chad area and crackdowns on rice smuggling across the Benin border - to explore the impacts on stability of two common forms of state responses to illicit markets: prohibition and militarized crackdowns. It then explores how state responses have shaped the relationship between violence and illicit markets, reviewing a range of interventions. One intervention has been the establishment of poorly regulated anti-crime groups by some of Nigeria's states to respond to illicit markets, which has accelerated the fragmentation of Nigeria's security landscape by splintering the federal government's hold over security provision, and now presents a catalogue of risks to human rights and illicit markets going forward. Finally, the report sets out the policy implications of these dynamics and proposes a range of recommendations.

Book Synopsis Non-Traditional Security in Asia by : Mely Caballero-Anthony
Download or read book Non-Traditional Security in Asia written by Mely Caballero-Anthony and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 2013 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-Traditional Security in Asia examines the critical security challenges faced by states and societies in Asia including health, food, water, natural disasters, internal conflict, forced migration, energy, transnational crime, and cyber security. Through the development of a comprehensive analytical framework that establishes the key ingredients to policy evaluation, the editors draw on a wide variety of experts to collaborate in investigating these crucial issues. This inclusive framework ensures that all voices are heard including those oftentimes under-represented and marginalized in society to ensure that academic and policy debates are well informed about the often complex and nuanced nature of these non-traditional security challenges. Through an investigation into these specific non-traditional security threats, Non-Traditional Security in Asia documents and evaluates many of the most pressing challenges faced by Asia today. The authors analyse the ways in which particular issues are addressed by the many stakeholders involved in the policy-making process, both within governments and across societies. The question of how these challenges are addressed across and between the different levels of global governance highlights the strengths and weakness that are directly attributable to policy successes and failures. It is through this layered and comprehensive approach, together with an evaluation of the role of stakeholders, which binds together the chapter contributions to this collection. The book undertakes an issue-specific chapter study of how Asian states and societies address these non-traditional security concerns from environmental adaptation and mitigation measures to conflict resolution. For each issue area, it identifies and explains the concerns of various policy communities, identifying the motivations behind some of the key decisions made to affect change or stabilize the status quo. Essentially it questions not only what a security issue is but also for whom the issue is important and the interaction this has with policy outcomes. With a focus on regional and global institutions as well as national and local ones, this collection illustrates the variety of stakeholders involved in non-traditional security concerns, and reflects on their relative importance in the decision-making process. Through a systematic evaluation of these non-traditional security issues by employing a comprehensive analytical framework, critical appreciation of the dynamics of the policy-making process surrounding issues of crucial national, regional and international significance in Asia are made. As a result of sharing these insights, the contributors provide the tools as well as a selection of issue-specific stakeholders to illuminate the key but complex characteristics of non-traditional security in Asia.
Book Synopsis Transnational Organised Crime by : Adam Edwards
Download or read book Transnational Organised Crime written by Adam Edwards and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-02-24 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perceived threat of 'transnational organized crime' to Western societies has been of huge interest to politicians, policy makers and social scientists over the last decade. This book considers the origins of this crime, how it has been defined and measured and the appropriateness of governments' policy responses. The contributors argue that while serious harm is often caused by transnational criminal activity - for example, the trafficking in human beings - the construction of that criminal activity as an external threat obscures the origins of these crimes in the markets for illicit goods and services within the 'threatened' societies. As such, the authors question the extent to which global crime can be controlled through law enforcement initiatives, and alternative policy initiatives are considered. The authors also question whether transnational organised crime will retain its place on the policy agendas of the United Nations and European Union in the wake of the 'War on Terror'.
Book Synopsis Transnational Organized Crime, Terrorism, and Criminalized States in Latin America by : Douglas Farah
Download or read book Transnational Organized Crime, Terrorism, and Criminalized States in Latin America written by Douglas Farah and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of new hybrid (state and nonstate) transnational criminal/terrorist franchises in Latin America operating under broad state protection now pose a tier-one security threat for the United States. Similar hybrid franchise models are developing in other parts of the world, making understanding the new dynamics an important factor in a broader national security context. This threat goes well beyond the traditional nonstate theory of constraints activity such as drug trafficking, money laundering, and human trafficking into the potential for trafficking related to weapons of mass destruction by designated terrorist organizations and their sponsors. These activities are carried out with the support of regional and extra regional states actors whose leadership is deeply enmeshed in criminal activity, which yields billions of dollars in illicit revenues every year. These same leaders have a publicly articulated, common doctrine of asymmetrical warfare against the United States and its allies that explicitly endorses as legitimate the use of weapons of mass destruction. The central binding element in this alliance is a hatred for the West, particularly the United States, and deep anti-Semitism, based on a shared view that the 1979 Iranian Revolution was a transformative historical event. For Islamists, it is evidence of divine favor; and for Bolivarians, a model of a successful asymmetrical strategy to defeat the "Empire." The primary architect of this theology/ideology that merges radical Islam and radical, anti-Western populism and revolutionary zeal is the convicted terrorist Ilich Sánchez Ramirez, better known as "Carlos the Jackal," whom Chávez has called a true visionary.
