Dr. Nikos Passas
Dr. Passas specializes in the study of terrorism, white-collar crime, corruption, organized crime and international crime. His empirical studies have focused on transnational crime and the informal transfer of money, the financing and social organization of terror groups, financial crimes in international trade, human trafficking, procurement fraud, computer-facilitated crimes, cyber-crimes, cross-border crimes and subsidy frauds committed against the European Union, bank-related offenses and the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) scandal. Dr. Passas has also contributed to theoretical criminology and written extensively on anomie theory. His elaborations of the original statement of this theory have made it possible to apply it to deviance and crime by upper-class individuals, professionals and organizations. His recent work on ‘global anomie’ focuses on processes of globalization and neo-liberal policies. Dr. Passas has authored numerous papers and research reports.
