This book considers a wide range of illicit industries in China,
exploring what drives such activities, why consumers tolerate them
to differing degrees, how attempts to regulate them are implemented
and how such regulation is resisted. Industries considered include
human smuggling, human organs trade, illicit pharmaceuticals,
smuggling of animal parts, illegal logging and trade of woods, food
safety and shadow banking. Throughout, the book describes how the
shadow economy works, analyses the degree to which illicit
activities are regarded as criminal and highlights the importance
of the shadow economy for certain regions of China and certain
sections of Chinese society. In doing so, it reveals the challenges
of human security posed by these industries not only for China, but
also for the global community, and considers a robust governance
mechanism at both national and global levels to address these
challenges. Overall, the book provides a very rich picture of a key
aspect of China's contemporary economy which is difficult to
research.
