    Information Technologies for the Control of Money Laundering September 1995 OTA-ITC-630 GPO stock #052-003-01436-0 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Information Technologies for Control of Money Laundering, OTA-ITC-630 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1995). oreword he key to control of international crime may depend on cutting off the flow of illegal profits to criminal organizations. It is esti- mated that $300 billion of “dirty money” may be laundered each year, its origin and ownership obscured as it passes through fi- nancial institutions and across national boundaries in an effort to hide and protect it from law enforcement authorities. Criminal organizations, like legitimate businesses, enjoy a swift and nearly risk-free conduit for moving money between countries—wire transfer systems. Illicit wire transfers are easily hidden among the 700,000 mostly legitimate wire transfers that occur daily in the United States, moving well over $2 trillion. OTA was asked by the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations of the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs to assess the proposed use of techniques derived from artificial intelligence research to monitor wire transfer traffic and recognize suspicious transfers. Fully automated computer screening of wire transfers was found to be virtually impossi- ble for technical reasons. However, OTA analysts developed and eval- uated a number of alternative configurations of technology that, com- bined with certain legal and institutional innovations, could greatly enhance the capability of law enforcement agencies to detect and prose- cute money launders seeking to exploit U.S. financial institutions and wire transfer systems.

    FROM CHAOS TO CONSILIENCE: THE NEED FOR SCIENCE-BASED POLICY TO PREVENT MARINE DEGRADATION FROM LAND-BASED ACTIVITIES SHELLEY MARGOT LEXMOND B.Sc. (Acadia), LL.B. (Dalhousie) A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY FACULTY OF LAW NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE 2002 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my two supervisors, Douglas Johnston and Bob Beckman, for their guidance and advice in charting my course. I am especially indebted to Douglas, a “master mariner”, in my opinion, for his many hours in the wheelhouse, helping to navigate the numerous shoals and bearing with me through black water and calm seas, and the occasional storm. David VanderZwaag of Dalhousie Law School, Canada, and Mike Bewers formerly of GESAMP and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada, each undertook the dual role of mentor and friend, for which I am deeply grateful. To Mike, my express thanks for providing access to the international scientific community. My gratitude extends to the numerous scientists who gave so generously of their time. Individuals too numerous to list, from diverse disciplines, countries, and agencies are thanked for comments, insight, time, information, inspiration, and opening portholes that would have otherwise remained closed. In particular, Ambassador Hasjim Djalal of Indonesia and Ian Townsend-Gault of the University of British Columbia kindly provided a crow’s nest from which to observe the roiling currents of international law and science through invitations to attend many meetings of the Technical Working Groups on Legal Matters, Marine Scientific Research, and Marine Environmental Protection and the Annual Workshops, all of which were components of the CIDA-funded initiative, Managing Potential Conflicts in the South China Sea.

(See Page 10) Kellogg Institute Visiting Fellow Aníbal Pérez-Liñán. (See Page 12) Cuban Artist Elio Rodríguez. (See Page 2) 2 CLASicos • Winter 2008 Cuban Artist Elio Rodríguez Elio Rodríguez, a Cuban artist currently working in Spain, was the most recent Latin American artist hosted by CLAS to comple- ment its annual Latin American and Caribbean Festival (held on September 29, 2007). Other artists have included Nicaraguan José Ignacio Fletes Cruz (2006), Peruvian Victor Beltrán (2005), and Nicaraguan Alejandro Cabrera (2004). Much of Elio’s art work employs silk screening and imitates movie marquees. The theme of his images deals with visual stereotypes of Afro-Cubans, as well as with political and gender issues. His work simultaneously reproduces the stereotype while confronting its implications. He was Artist in Residence at the Diego Rivera and Francisco Oller Museum in Buffalo, New York in 2003 and Visiting Professor at Tufts University and Harvard University during 2002. Elio has exhibited in the United States and Europe. An exhibit of his silk screens, enti- tled “Remakes,” was on display in the Frick Fine Arts Gallery at the University of Pittsburgh from September 24 to October 24, 2007. Two silk screens from the “Remakes” exhibition. During his week-long stay in Pittsburgh, Elio welcomed view- ers during the opening reception for “Remakes,” exchanged ideas about art and techniques with Pittsburgh artist Bob Beckman, was interviewed for broadcast by Revista Radial Latinoamericana/ Latin American Radio Magazine, participated in fine art instructor Lenore Thomas’ etching class in the Department of Art and Archi- tecture, gave two public lectures, Alejandro de la Fuente, Susana Guerrero, and Elio Rodríguez at opening of “Remakes.” and demonstrated silk screening techniques at the Latin American and Caribbean Festival.

  • The Accusation of Anti-Semitism, Part I
    1 19 THE ACCUSATION OF ANTI-SEMITISM, PART I "Surely Jews understand that in identifying an anti-Semite one must use a sum-of-all-its-parts test. If it is yellow, has a four-foot neck, spots, and little horns, it is a giraffe." -- Jewish comedian Jackie Mason and Jewish lawyer Raul Felder, 9-2000, p. 57 "If you want to understand anti-Semitism, read the Old Testament." -- George Orwell "So long as there is a single anti-Semite in the world, I shall declare with pride that I am a Jew." -- Ilya Ehrenburg, Jewish Russian author, (in DERSHOWITZ, p. 14] "Fighting anti-Semitism seems to be for some Jews more important than any other expression of Jewishness ... The danger appears when one becomes dependent upon them for one's identity, so that one begins to need anti-Semitism." -- Stanislaw Krajewski, (Polish Jew) "For some Jews and perhaps some of the Jewish leadership, the fear is that if anti-Semitism completely disappears then the Jewish community might erode or dissolve." -- Stanley Rothman, (in STALLSWORTH, p. 67) "And if real peace does come to Israel, the question will be asked: Can we, and how do we, survive without an external enemy?" -- vraham Burg, head of the Jewish Agency, [HARTUNG, J., 1995] "The assumption of an eternal anti-Semitism ... has been adapted by a great many unbiased historians and by even a greater number of Jews. It is this odd coincidence which makes the theory so very dangerous and confusing. Its escapist basis in both instances the same; just as anti-Semites understandably desire to escape responsibility for their deeds, so Jews, attacked and on the defensive, even more understandably, do not wish to under any circumstances discuss their share of responsibility." -- Hannah Arendt, Origins, p.
