Moisés Naím gave a talk about his book "Illicit: How Smugglers, Traffickers and Copycats Are Hijacking the Global Economy" in a program sponsored by the Library's Hispanic Division. His book is based on exhaustive research throughout the world, and his presentation focused on the tremendous growth of illicit trade across all international borders that threatens legitimate commerce, which has to abide by national and international regulations.
