It suggests that the focus should\u00a0be trained more closely on the reduction of criminal opportunities than on crime control policies. This requires a change of mindset: from the conviction of criminals, hoping that this will eventually reduce crime, to the actual reduction of crime through specific prevention strategies.<\/p>\n<p>The study adopts two approaches. The first part (Framing the scene: the ITTP in the European Union) takes a \u201chorizontal approach\u201d and analyses selected components of the illicit cigarette market in the EU. The second part (Zooming the scene: the ITTP in the EU Member States and beyond) adopts \u201ca vertical approach\u201d and examines in detail the illicit markets within each EU Member State, as well\u00a0as the role of selected non-EU European countries in the EU illicit market. Both the horizontal and the vertical approaches underscore the regulatory and law enforcement dimensions that influence the size and type of the ITTP in Europe and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>If the illicit cigarette trade is to be reduced, it is necessary to understand the trade-off between regulation\u00a0of the legal market and the risk of creating criminal opportunities in the illicit market. Currently, policymakers regulate the legal market while leaving the fight against the illicit market to law enforcement. The reduction of criminal opportunities may reduce this trade-off, thus maximizing health and minimizing crime with lower costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This study has been coordinated by Ernesto U.
