This book brings together the findings of a multi-disciplinary and international research project on environmental crime in Europe, funded by the European Union (EU). 'European Union Action to Fight Environmental Crime' (EFFACE) was a 40-month research project that included eleven European research institutions and think tanks and was led by Ecologic Institute Berlin. EFFACE assessed the impacts of environmental crime as well as effective and feasible policy options for combating it from a multidisciplinary perspective, with a focus on the EU. As part of this project, numerous instances of environmental crime within and outside of the EU were studied and are now presented in this volume.

This edited collection is highly innovative in showing not only the many facets of environmental crime, but also how it should be conceptualised and the consequences. An original and rigorous study, this book will be of particular interest to policy makers and scholars of green criminology and environmental studies.



Ragnhild Sollund is Professor in Criminology at the University of Oslo, Norway.

Christoph H. Stefes is Associate Professor for Comparative European and Post-Soviet Studies at the University of Colorado, Denver, USA, and Senior Fellow at the Ecologic Institute Berlin, Germany.

Anna Rita Germani (PhD, MSc) is Aggregate Professor in Economics at the Department of Law, Philosophy and Economic Studies at the University of Rome, Italy.
