From national naivety to networked action: What are the challenges to the effectiveness of security networks dealing with undermining crime in the Netherlands?

Bachelor thesis | Security Studies (BSc)

Organized crime is increasingly infiltrating the legal branches of the Dutch economy, which undermines the integrity of institutions and businesses. In the Netherlands, this process is referred to as undermining and affects all layers of society. This thesis argues that undermining should be tackled via a networked approach and explores the challenges to the effectiveness of these networks. It uses five criteria to systematically analyze the existing literature and introduces Taskforce-RIEC Brabant-Zeeland as an illustrative case study. It concludes that the current criminal landscape demands networks to intensify their cooperation, be flexible and adaptive, further integrate knowledge and practice, and be creative in the technological domain.
