Highlights

 

Illicit Trade Group (ITG)

The emergence of a global market have created a vast range of opportunities for illicit activities. The Illicit Trade Group is an interdisciplinary research environment formed by a group of students, researchers, professors and experts working under Globalization Studies Groningen(GSG) at the University of Groningen.

Cost Action GLITSS

Illicit trade affects all aspects of contemporary societies. Yet, despite this obvious objective relevance, the discussion on illicit trade remains compartmentalized within disciplinary boundaries. The Cost Globalization, Illicit Trade, Sustainability and Security (GLITSS) contributes to filling a research gap.

EU Sanctions Database

The database is an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the experience of the EU with sanctions. It is constituted by 48 cases of these restrictive measures, which have been subdivided in 85 episodes. The database answers to the when, why, how and where of EU sanctions since the entry into force of the Treaty of Maastricht.
