(Topic: Illegal Markets and Organized Crime)
I. Brief Discussion
The most evident contrast between organized crime and other types of
criminal behavior is that it is "organized," which excludes random,
unplanned, individual criminal activities. Instead, it focuses solely on
planned, reasoned activities that reflect the collective effort of humans.
There are so many organized crime operates different illegal activities in
different countries, in example, Costa Rica, Ku Kux Klan, Yakuza, Triad

lack education and less fortunate people who attracted with the offers by the
traffickers.

Crime and the Developing World report, the global illicit drug market was
worth between US$426 and US$652 billion in 2014.With a global GDP of
US$78 trillion in the same year, the illegal drug trade may be worth nearly
1% of total global trade. Illegal drug use is common around the world, and
local governments continue to struggle to lower drug consumption rates.
