  • Riding at the Margins
    Riding at the Margins International Media and the Construction of a Generic Outlaw Biker Identity in the South Island of New Zealand, circa 1950 – 1975. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Cultural Anthropology By David Haslett University of Canterbury Christchurch, New Zealand 2007 Abstract New Zealand has had a visible recreational motorcycle culture since the 1920s, although the forerunners of the later ‘outlaw’ motorcycle clubs really only started to emerge as loose-knit biker cliques in the 1950s. The first recognised New Zealand ‘outlaw club’, the Auckland chapter of the Californian Hell’s Angels M.C., was established on July 1961 (Veno 2003: 31). This was the Angels’ first international chapter, and only their fifth chapter overall at that time. Further outlaw clubs emerged throughout both the North and the South Island of New Zealand from the early 1960s, and were firmly established in both islands by the end of 1975. Outlaw clubs continue to flourish to this day. The basic question that motivated this thesis was how (the extent to which) international film, literature, media reports and photographic images (circa 1950 – 1975) have influenced the generic identity adopted by ‘outlaw’ motorcycle clubs in New Zealand, with particular reference to the South Island clubs. The focus of the research was on how a number of South Island New Zealand outlaw bikers interpreted international mass media representations of ‘outlaw’ biker culture between 1950 – 1975. This time span was carefully chosen after considerable research, consultation and reflection. It encompasses a period when New Zealand experienced rapid development of a global mass media, where cultural images were routinely communicated internationally in (relatively) real time.

Graeme Melcher* Hit Them Where it Hurts: State Responses to Biker Gangs in Canada From civil and criminal forfeiture, to "gangsterism" offences in the Criminal Code, Canada does not lack for tools to address biker gangs. Yet attempts to stamp out bikers have met with little to no success. State responses to criminal organizations should use those organizations' own structures and symbols of power against them. A gang's reputation may be effectively used against a gang, but this strategy poses significant challenges to prosecution. Attempts to use a gang's internal hierarchy and administrative structure can succeed, but may only produce circumstantial findings if not supported by sufficient and substantial evidence. Attempts to combat gang violence by targeting their clubhouses, whether through forfeiture provisions or through municipal bylaws, may prove the most effective methods of targeting biker gangs. The issue is not a lack of resources; those resources are used inefficiently and ineffectively.

However, the literary rights of the author must also be respected. If any passage from this thesis is quoted or closely paraphrased in a paper or written work prepared by the user, the source of the passage must be acknowledged in the work. If the user desires to publish a paper or written work containing passages copied or closely paraphrased from this thesis, which passages would in total constitute an infringing copy for the purpose of the Copyright Act, he or she must first obtain the written permission of the author to do so. iii Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate an instrument designed to assess the influence of the media on opinions regarding the one percent motorcycle clubs in Kalgoorlie-Boulder, establishing whether the media had incited a moral panic towards the clubs. The concept of the moral panic, developed by Stanley Cohen (1972), is the widespread fear towards a social group by events that are overrepresented and exaggerated. Exploring the concept of a moral panic towards the one percent sub-culture, this study compares the perceptions from two groups of non-members in Kalgoorlie-Boulder.

    Hell's Angels A Strange and Terrible Saga Hunter S. Thompson from the back cover: The barbarians are no longer at the city gates. they are in the city! And Hunter S. Thompson, America's most brazen and ballsy journalist, tells their story as no one else can! "A close view of a world most of us would never dare encounter." -- The New York Times Book Review "For all its uninhibited tone and its sardonic humor Thompson's book is a thoughtful piece of work. He was not gulled by their self-conscious shock tactics or the mountebank obscenities they practice in public." -- The New Yorker Hunter S. Thompson is a freelance writer from San Francisco, Aspen, and points east. His research on the Hell's Angels involved more than a year of close association with the outlaws -- riding, loafing, plotting, and eventually being stomped. A native of Louisville, Kentucky, he began writing as a sports columnist in Florida. He started his first novel while studying at Columbia University in New York City. Since then he has worked on newspapers and magazines in New York, San Juan, and Rio de Janeiro. His articles have appeared in The Reporter, The Nation, Esquire, and Rolling Stone.

  • Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs and Organized Crime
    Klaus von Lampe and Arjan Blokland Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs and Organized Crime ABSTRACT Outlaw motorcycle clubs have spread across the globe. Their members have been associated with serious crime, and law enforcement often perceives them to be a form of organized crime. Outlaw bikers are disproportionately engaged in crime, but the role of the club itself in these crimes remains unclear. Three scenarios describe possible relations between clubs and the crimes of their members. In the “bad apple” scenario, members individually engage in crime; club membership may offer advantages in enabling and facilitating offending. In the “club within a club” scenario, members engage in crimes separate from the club, but because of the number of members involved, including high-ranking members, the club itself appears to be taking part. The club can be said to function as a criminal organization only when the formal organizational chain of command takes part in organization of the crime, lower level members regard senior members’ leadership in the crime as legitimate, and the crime is generally understood as “club business.” All three scenarios may play out simultaneously within one club with regard to different crimes. Fact and fiction interweave concerning the origins, evolution, and prac- tices of outlaw motorcycle clubs. What Mario Puzo’s (1969) acclaimed novel The Godfather and Francis Ford Coppola’s follow-up film trilogy did for public and mafiosi perceptions of the mafia, Hunter S. Thompson’s Electronically published June 3, 2020 Klaus von Lampe is professor of criminology at the Berlin School of Economics and Law. Arjan Blokland is professor of criminology and criminal justice at Leiden University, Obel Foundation visiting professor at Aalborg University, and senior researcher at the Netherlands Institute for the Study of Crime and Law Enforcement.

  • Preventing Organised Crime Originating from Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs
    Trends Organ Crim https://doi.org/10.1007/s12117-017-9322-7 Preventing organised crime originating from outlaw motorcycle clubs Tore Bjørgo 1,2 # The Author(s) 2017. This article is an open access publication Abstract How can a holistic model of crime prevention be applied to crime originating from outlaw motorcycle clubs? The police in different countries and even in different police districts have varied considerably in the ways they have dealt with these outlaw MC clubs and the criminal activities associated with them. Some police forces have mainly applied a repressive criminal justice approach whereas others have put more emphasis on dialogue, prevention and harm reduction. This article will argue for a comprehensive approach which combines Bsoft^ and Bhard^ measures, based on a holistic model of crime prevention developed in my previous works (Bjørgo 2013, 2016), based on nine preventive mechanisms. Several preventive actors beyond the police possess a variety of measures which can be implemented to activate these preventive mechanisms. Such a holistic approach reduces the need to rely on repressive approaches alone. Most of the examples in this article are from Norway and Denmark. Keywords Crime prevention . Preventive mechanism .

  • Les Bandes Criminelles De Motards : Crime Organise, Rivalites Et Contrôle De Territoires
    NOVEMBRE 2014 - MCC LES BANDES CRIMINELLES DE MOTARDS : CRIME ORGANISE, RIVALITES ET CONTRÔLE DE TERRITOIRES François Farcy, Criminologue Etienne Codron, Criminologue Les Satudarah MC à la conquête de l’Europe ! Sept chapitres établis en Belgique en un an (le « chapitre » est la structure de base de l’organisation des bandes criminelles de motards), des chapitres en Allemagne et une omniprésence aux Pays-Bas, les MC Satudarah Maluku et leurs couleurs jaunes et noirs à tête d’indien se sont lancés à la conquête de l’Europe1. Initialement dissidence des Hells Angels aux Pays-Bas, cette organisation criminelle de motards composée au départ de nombreux Moluquois est en pleine expansion et est devenue un farouche ennemi, particulièrement violent, des Hells Angels. Voilà l’actualité de ces dernières semaines ! Mais qui sont ces Bandes Criminelles de motards ? De vraies organisations criminelles ou de simples clubs de motards structurés et parfois impressionnants par leur hiérarchie et leur fonctionnement plutôt folkloriques ? Pourquoi malgré la violente rivalité qui les oppose et leurs activités criminelles avérées est-il si difficile de les faire reconnaître comme organisation criminelle ? Enfin comment s’organisent les chapitres, qui les dirige et comment recrutent-ils, comment s’organise l’implantation des principales organisations, visant toute à contrôler un territoire et des clubs vassaux (Hangaround, Prospects) ? Des évolutions européennes Depuis leurs arrivées en Europe, les principaux gangs de motards (Hells Angels en 1967 à Zurich ; les Bandidos en 1989 à Marseille et les Outlaws en 1993 à Nantes) dominent la scène criminelle « bikers » locale. La totalité des pays européens est touchée et ces gangs sont impliqués dans des affaires de trafic et production de stupéfiants, de trafic d’armes, de contrebande d’alcool et de cigarettes, de fraudes en tous genres, de vols de motos et de voitures, de trafic de pièces détachées, de proxénétisme, d’extorsion de fonds,… et bien sûr de règlements de comptes.
