National policies and laws

5.47-0.01

International cooperation is an essential component to combating organized crime because it sets the basis for national responses. Thus, national policies and laws refers to state legal action and structures put in place to respond to organized crime. National organized crime strategies and legislation are adapted to the needs of the state, its legal tradition and social, economic cultural and geographic conditions. As such, the presence of these reflects higher state resilience to organized crime.
