International interventions and sovereignty

Rohan Clarke

Chapter 6 in A Research Agenda for Economic Crime and Development, 2023, pp 137-154 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The chapter explores how international interventions to tackle economically motivated crimes could productively accommodate development thinking and the idea of sovereignty. This assessment is undertaken by posing a series of probing questions about the empirical content, relevance and normative value of state sovereignty in the post-War international legal order, and in related institutional and regulatory arrangements to supress cross-border economic crimes. The article suggests pathways for further meaningful research on economic crime that might bridge the gap between theory and policy, particularly in relation to interventions targeted at developing countries perceived as ‘high-risk’ or assessed to have strategic deficiencies in their domestic anti-money laundering (AML/CFT) regimes.
