Abstract/Description:

Many contributions to this volume propose a more efficient and effective approach to tackling environmental crime. Adapted structures, structural collaboration, targeted information gathering, a project-based approach, multidisciplinary investigating and an international vision are each methods that have been shown as effective in the fight against environmental crime. All these methods have proven their worth separately but when they are used simultaneously there is a mutual reinforcement of their effectiveness.
