Cover of Robert McLean: Gangs, Drugs and (Dis)Organised Crime (ePUB)

Drawing upon unique empirical data based on interviews with high-profile ex-offenders and experts, this book sheds new light on drug markets and gangs in the UK. The study shows how traditional methods of tackling gang violence fail to address the intertwined nature of those criminal activities which can overlap with other organised crime spheres. Mc Lean sparks new debate on the subject, offering solutions and alternatives.
