N2 - This chapter explores the consequences of cross-border crime for situational crime prevention. Many types of organised crime involve international smuggling activities – such as drug trafficking, money laundering, smuggling illegal immigrants, and other transnational illegal activities. Based on research in the Netherlands, this chapter explores cross-border crime from three different angles (export, import and transit) with regard to four different areas of organised crime: Ecstasy (production and export), cocaine (import and transit), money laundering (export), and human smuggling (transit). It highlights the opportunities for situational crime prevention, as well as its limitations and the attendant caveats when it comes to dealing with cross-border crime.
