Loretta Napoleoni examines the economics that drive and control a variety of illegal or unethical businesses including those trafficking in human slavery, poaching, and terrorist activity. Napoleoni, an Italian economist and journalist, takes readers on an international tour of the gritty side of supply and demand, exploring everything from prostitution in Russia, to sub prime bank loans in the United States, to African "blood diamonds," to the often uncontrolled world of Internet businesses. |
