      abstract = {This unique Handbook provides multiple perspectives on the  growth of illicit trade, primarily exploring counterfeits  and internet piracy. The expert contributions, drawn from  the private sector, the legal community, and leading  enforcement and anti-counterfeiting agencies, cover a wide  range of topics including the evaluation of key global  enforcement issues, government and private-sector  initiatives to stifle illicit trade, and the evolution of  piracy on the internet. The authors also assess the  efficacy of anti-counterfeiting strategies such as targeted  consumer campaigns, working with intermediaries in the  supply chain, authentication technology, and online brand  protection. Offering a succinct and up-to-date overview of  country initiatives to stem illicit trade in China, Mexico,  and the US, the book addresses key global enforcement  issues. It illustrates the unique problems facing key  industry sectors and expands on a comprehensive and timely  debate on the growing problem of illicit trade on the  internet, highlighting distinct aspects of piracy in the  music industry. The persistent problem of botnets, malware,  and 'malvertising' is discussed, along with an overview of  the various issues associated with online brand protection.  Furthermore, a variety of anti-counterfeiting measures are  presented that target both the demand and supply of illicit  trade, complemented by an examination of their relative  effectiveness. This accessible, provocative, and timely  synopsis of counterfeiting and illicit trade will be of  great value to academics and researchers of law,  criminology, and trade. It will also be an excellent  resource for government agencies, policymakers, and  private-sector managers in those industries most affected  by this growing and pervasive problem.},
