Debt crises and marketization under pressure A long history of debt crises constrains the ability of many developing countries to meet basic needs in the areas of public health, education, water, sanitation and nutrition. Financial liberalization and financial crises These are examples of overt conditionalities. Cities restructured by the global marketplace Long-distance effects of quite a different kind are evident in changing patterns of urban form and settlement, and assume special importance given the estimate that the world's urban population will have grown by more than two billion people between and Globalization, natural resources and environmental exposures The global marketplace for natural resources and services or amenities provided by the natural environment creates an important and complex set of influences on SDH.

Illicit Flows and Criminal Things offers a new perspective on illegal transnational linkages, international relations, and the transnational. The contributors argue for a nuanced approach that recognizes the difference between "organized" crime and the thousands of illicit acts that take place across national borders every day. They distinguish between the illegal prohibi Illicit Flows and Criminal Things offers a new perspective on illegal transnational linkages, international relations, and the transnational.

They distinguish between the illegal prohibited by law and the illicit socially perceived as unacceptable , which are historically changeable and contested. Detailed case studies of arms smuggling, illegal transnational migration, the global diamond trade, borderland practices, and the transnational consumption of drugs take us to Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe, and North America. They allow us to understand how states, borders, and the language of law enforcement produce criminality, and how people and goods which are labeled "illegal" move across regulatory spaces.
