Illicit Flows and Criminal Things offers a new perspective on
illegal transnational linkages, international relations, and the
transnational. The contributors argue for a nuanced approach that
recognizes the difference between "organized" crime and the
thousands of illicit acts that take place across national borders
every day. They distinguish between the illegal (prohibited by law)
and the illicit (socially perceived as unacceptable), which are
historically changeable and contested. Detailed case studies of
arms smuggling, illegal transnational migration, the global diamond
trade, borderland practices, and the transnational consumption of
drugs take us to Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe, and North
America. They allow us to understand how states, borders, and the
language of law enforcement produce criminality, and how people and
goods which are labeled "illegal" move across regulatory
spaces.
