Please join us on Friday, October 23, from 12-1 p.m. EDT, for the launch of a groundbreaking study at the nexus of illicit trade, organized crime, and official corruption in the Global South. The report, entitled “States on the Cusp”, is partly the result of intensive field work conducted in Southern Africa and Central America, focusing on case studies of illicit trade in cigarettes and pharmaceuticals, and provides an analytical framework for understanding global illicit trade—and how to combat it.
