Chasing Criminal Money - Challenges and Perspectives On Asset Recovery in the EU (Hardcover): Katalin Ligeti, Michele Simonato Chasing Criminal Money - Challenges and Perspectives On Asset Recovery in the EU (Hardcover)

The fight against dirty money is not a new topic, nor a recent problem. It has existed within international and national agendas since the 1980s. Nonetheless, the evolving complexity of criminal skills and networks; the increasingly global dimension of crime; the financial crisis; and the alleged unsatisfactory results of the efforts hitherto undertaken cause us to re-pose and re-discuss some questions. This book addresses several issues concerning the reasons, objectives and scope of national and supranational strategies targeting criminal money, as well as the concrete modalities to overcome its obstacles. The main objective is to explore where the EU stands and where it ought to go, providing useful input for policy-makers and further research. Nevertheless, the problems are not limited to the EU area, and assets - particularly money - cross EU borders much more easily than people do. The reflections developed in the chapters, therefore, aim at going beyond these EU borders. The book is divided into two parts. The first one focuses on the core of asset recovery policies, namely confiscation or forfeiture laws, and explores in particular some issues concerning the respect of fundamental rights. The second part addresses other problematic aspects related to the asset recovery process, such as the return of assets to victim countries, the cross-border investigations on dirty money, and the social use of confiscated assets.

Le campagne di informazione sulla droga sono spesso troppo semplificate e sbilanciate verso atteggiamenti di preconcetta condanna o assoluzione, basati piu su criteri di tipo ideologico che di tipo scientifico. Ma le persone, in particolare gli adolescenti che si trovano ad affrontare il problema, vogliono capire prima di decidere: non "basta dire di no" (come suggeriva la moglie del presidente Reagan negli anni '80), c'e bisogno di sapere come stanno le cose per fare delle scelte consapevoli.

Questa edizione italiana di Buzzed, grande successo editoriale internazionale, rappresenta una fonte comprensibile ed essenziale per capire come agiscono le droghe e quali sono i loro effetti sull'organismo e sul comportamento. Scientificamente accurato e facile da leggere, il libro fornisce dati equilibrati, oggettivi e aggiornati sulle sostanze piu usate e abusate - dall'alcol alla caffeina, dalla nicotina all'eroina, all'ecstasy, alla metamfetamina. Arricchito da indici che velocizzano la ricerca delle informazioni e da capitoli di approfondimento, il volume spiega come le droghe si muovono nell'organismo e descrive i loro effetti immediati e a lungo termine, il tipo di "sballo" che provocano, le circostanze in cui possono essere molto pericolose. Forse unico nel panorama dei libri sulla droga, presta inoltre una particolare attenzione agli effetti spesso insidiosi che alcune droghe esercitano sul cervello ancora in sviluppo dell'adolescente.

Questa edizione e stata calata nella realta italiana attraverso la completa riscrittura di alcuni capitoli, l'aggiunta di moltissime note sulla situazione in Italia e, soprattutto, attraverso il coinvolgimento di studenti liceali, ai quali e stato chiesto di valutare e commentare il testo.

Insomma, un libro per capire, per dire, all'occorrenza, "lo so.""
