Research Handbook on Money Laundering

Edited by Brigitte Unger and Daan van der Linde

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Although the practice of disguising the illicit origins of money dates back thousands of years, the concept of money laundering as a multidisciplinary topic with social, economic, political and regulatory implications has only gained prominence since the 1980s. This groundbreaking volume offers original, state-of-the-art research on the current money laundering debate and provides insightful predictions and recommendations for future developments in the field.
