Growing increase of transnational criminality, especially in the regional level, introduces its related legal and criminological issues. With a definition of regional crimes, that is organized and profit-driven criminal behavior affecting two or more countries by its commission or effects or transnational criminal behavior being committed in a given region, their causes and solution would be a noticeable subject with decisive national and regional strategic implications. To this end, This article firstly conceptualizes regional crime and doing so explains characteristics of this crime through fluidity of the criminals and the pandemic criminal activities, and thus analyzes regional crimes with a etiologic and solution-finding point of view. This analysis with considering factors that exacerbate the aforementioned characteristics defines political, economic, social and penal models indicating structure of opportunity, constraint, and thus unbalanced control. Therefore, application of preventive strategies and reinforcement of transnational/regional penal capacity, with reduction of opportunity and increase in constraint, would result in control balance.
