Foreign Affairs: How to Steal a Diamond: Little happens in Namaqualand, except "leakage"

Article Abstract:

Namaqualand, South Africa, is infamous in the diamond industry for its constant flow of stolen diamonds. Miners can steal diamonds when corrupt security workers avert their eyes, and then transport them via homing pigeons or other methods. Many workers feel that God put diamonds in South Africa and the mining companies cannot claim sole ownership of the resource.

Article Abstract:

The US's post-Cold War posture toward Europe inclines too greatly toward military security concerns, while simultaneously underemphasizing transatlantic economic issues. American policymakers should acknowledge Euro-American economic interdependence and reformulate policy accordingly.

Article Abstract:
