ON THE STUDIES OF THE CONTEMPORARY FORMS OF COMMERCIAL CRIMINALITY – MONEY LAUNDERING

Abstract

It is not an overstatement to say that the explosion of the commercial criminality at the global level and its catastrophic consequences strike at the foundations of the contemporary society and give rise to the huge imbalances in all countries – both in the highly developed societies and in the underdeveloped once. If nothing is done to alter this situation, the weak results of the fight against terrorism will remain a constant feature of all our activities conducted in that regard. The principal element of the fight against commercial crime shall be objectivity that is to be open for any suggestion in formulating the concrete programs. This article deals with the features of the contemporary studies on commercial crime. It particularly points out to the necessity to abandon the principle of „ignorantia facti“ as an unintentional refusal to face all the elements of this phenomenon, the importance of it and its destructive effects which are the consequence if the enormous enrichment of the criminal groups.
