Comparing Transnational Crimes

Comparing Transnational Crime

For this assignment, you will select one transnational crime and two countries (from the six model nations in Chapter 4 of your text) to research the similarities and differences of transnational crime between the two countries. Use the Internet and the Strayer Library to conduct your research.

Write a 2–3 page paper in which you:

• Describe the transnational crime along with an introduction to each of the countries being compared.
• Compare and contrast both countries' definitions of crime, crime rates, and tools used to measure crime.
• Determine each country's legal traditions and their major influences on crime definition, rate, and measurement.
• Examine the extent to which crime statistics compiled in different countries can adequately be compared. Provide support for the response.
• Provide at least three quality references
