Knowledge-based, innovative and sustainable economy is key to a fast socio-economic growth. Criminal activities and especially activities of organized crime groups are an important negative factor that may hamper economic progress. Countering and fighting crime is one of the principal responsibilities of a democratic government. That demands a concentrated effort on working out evaluations, tools and methods as well as adopting a holistic approach, involving in the co-operation a whole spectre of entities. Of paramount importance is the inclusion of private businesses on the platform of the public-private partnership. Engaging private entrepreneurs to contribute and employ innovative technologies to prevent and counter criminal activity provide for raising public confidence and sense of safety. It may also make relations between the State and private business more transparent. Important areas of research related to the internal security issues are also: nuclear energy, responding to the terrorist threat and satisfaction from work among the Police force. The the research and development programme entitled “Countering and fighting organized crime and terrorism in the accelerated and sustainable socio-economic growth” adds to improving co-ordination, co-operation and understanding between the law enforcement, public authorities and the private sector to maintain public safety and the rule of law.
