    Abstract

    Breaking down borders

    [12.10] Until recently, crime was mainly viewed as a domestic problem.That is, each country has defined its own crimes using domestic criminal law to do so, and responded to the occurrence of such crimes using its own justice processes. Most crimes were local in nature, committed by citizens or other entities (eg corporations) of a nation-state against fellow citizens or other entities of the same state. Often these crimes would be committed against people living in the same town, village, or urban neighbourhood.
