Abstract
The fight against transnational organized crime is possible through the co-operation of governments through preventive and repressive measures. The Palermo Convention encourages States to co-operate in the application of preventive measures, and Article 31 of the Convention deals with the prevention of crime. Repressive actions take place in the post-crime phase and in response to them. No country alone can succeed in tackling this global dilemma; Because the scope of crimes has been extended beyond the borders. In the fight against transnational organized crime, the application of the strategies and protocols to the Palermo Convention by governments can be very effective. This research, with a qualitative and analytical-descriptive approach, seeks to answer the question of whether the fight against transnational organized crime will be achieved through the preventive and repressive measures of the Palermo Convention. The findings show that the Palermo Convention is more successful than other international instruments and can be an effective basis in the fight against international organized crime.
