The issue of organised crimes is causing the death, physical and psychological injury of numerous people all over the world and thus it is a problem of great concern.

    SGOC STUDYING GROUP ON ORGANISED CRIME https://sgocnet.org Perceptions of Ethnic Albanians in New York City and the Role of Stereotypes in Fostering Social Exclusion and Criminality Original article Perceptions of Ethnic Albanians in New York City and the Role of Stereotypes in Fostering Social Exclusion and Criminality Jane Arsovska and Adriana Michilli* Abstract: In many European Union countries, law enforcement agencies and popular media have depicted ethnic Albanians as “brutal criminals” and a “dangerous breed”. Scholars have claimed that these labeling practices have hindered the social inclusion of Albanians in Western societies, and have fostered Albanian criminality. This research examines whether New York’s media also catalyzes processes of social isolation and deviancy amongst its Albanian migrant population by labeling them as criminals. The conclusions are based on newspaper analysis (1990-2014), focusing on depictions of Albanians in New York newspapers; interviews with non-Albanian population in New York City (N=85); and interviews with ethnic Albanian immigrants, including offenders, in New York City (N=88). Findings revealed that New York’s media is not necessarily influencing Albanian criminality. Keywords: Albanian criminality – organized crime – labelling theory – media – New York – social exclusion – signal crimes *Jana Arsovska is an Assistant Professor at the Sociology Department, John Jay College of Criminal Justice.

  • The Unheard Voices: an Exploration of the Engagement and Disengagement Experiences Of
    The unheard voices: An exploration of the engagement and disengagement experiences of black ex-youth gang members by Anthony Mpiani A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology University of Alberta © Anthony Mpiani, 2020 Abstract Youth gangs and the criminal activities they engage in remain a major problem in Canada. Recent media and law enforcement reports suggest that some black youth have been involved with gangs. However, experiences of black ex-youth gang members in Canada have received relatively limited scholarly engagements. Based on data from semi-structured in-depth interviews with 16 black ex-youth gang members, this study investigates why black youth join gangs, why some desist from gangs and how they construe their experiences with the Canadian criminal justice system. Discursive accounts of participants suggest that black youth gang involvement results from a reciprocal relationship between individual and socio-structural factors. Specifically, some black youth join gangs due to adverse experiences at home, school, communities, influences of deviant peers, and their quests for money, respect, status and friendship. The study demonstrates that black youth gang membership tends to be temporary, and some black youth gang members desist because of actual or threat of violence (to self, family members or gang members), disillusionment, fear of incarceration, police harassment, committed relationships, advice from influential others and religious awakening. The study reports three key findings on black youth gang members’ experiences with the criminal justice system. First, the interactions between black youth gang members and police are mostly marked by physical and verbal abuse, harassment and disrespect with few encounters characterised by fairness and respect.
