Twenty-first century law to meet the challenge of twenty-first century organized crime

Article Abstract:

The phenomenal technological improvements in communication and related sciences have enhanced the power and success of globalized organized crime. An international justice system should be established to deal with the international criminal organizations of the future. The countries of the world should sacrifice some of their sovereignty by subjecting themselves to a global judiciary or criminal code. The international court of the 21st century should possess sufficient political power to enforce an international code of justice.

Sociologists and scholars of law have been intrigued by this new virtual society's legal, ideological and spatial relationships. The virtual society is composed of physical forces that are governed by unique legalities, codes of conduct and culture.
