  • More about Unraveling the Crime-Development Nexus

Unraveling the Crime-Development Nexus challenges the claim that crime threatens economic development, revealing how international actors have used it to advance a global capitalist development agenda. It calls for a more equitable and sustainable model of global crime governance that addresses structural causes of crime and uneven development.

Unraveling the Crime-Development Nexus challenges the notion that crime poses a significant threat to economic development. By combining historical analysis with unique empirical insights from interviews with high-level international crime policy insiders, the book explores how and why the 'crime-development nexus' has been invoked by international actors, including the United Nations, to advance and secure variations of a global capitalist development agenda since the 19th Century. Drawing on perspectives from critical criminology, International Relations, and development studies, the book reveals that the international crime policy agenda today remains overwhelmingly responsive to those who benefit from the further expansion of neoliberal globalisation, while simultaneously marginalising subordinate actors throughout the 'developing world'. The book concludes by considering how international organisations, civil society actors, and major donors might support a more equitable and sustainable model of global crime governance that addresses the structural causes of crime and uneven development at a global level.
