This paper aims to explore the spatial patterns of transnational organized crime under the conditions of globalization. The available data of UN Office on Drugs and Crime and website www.havocscope.com provide for estimates of the world black market value by comparing the total value of 50 contraband products and illegal activities with the total value of criminal markets in 93 countries. The information is subject to limitations of the incomplete data, differences in calculation, and exaggeration of the problems for political and financial motives, and reflects the nature of the "black market". The spatial analysis of the key "black markets", however, identifies the main illicit flows by types of illegal activities. The values of illegal economic activities as a percentage of GDP and per capita calculated for 93 countries of the world based the first mapping attempt, which confirms that transnational organized crime today is really a global problem, especially in poor and conflict-ridden countries. Notable feature shows that the major illicit flows go to, and/or emanate from major economic powers like G8 or BRIC. The research of component and territorial structure of the global "black market", thus, is essential for the development of effective national and international policies in the fight against transnational organized crime.
