This isthe first book to use economic theory in the analysis of all the differentaspects of organised crime: the origins, the internal organisation, marketbehaviour and deterrence policies. The theory of rent-seeking is adopted tohelp understand the origin of criminal organisations from a state of anarchy,while modern industrial organisation theory is used to explain the design ofinternal rules in the organised crime sector. The market behaviour of organisedcrime is analysed taking into account its double nature of competitive firm andof monopolist on rule-making. Finally, the 'crime and economics' approach isapplied to the analysis of corruption that occurs when the organised crimesector and the government collude to exploit their monopoly on rule-making.This book provides a careful balance between theoretical and institutional orempirical contributions. Each chapter outlines the normative results of theanalysis in order to design more sophisticated deterrence policies.
