  • Theories of Organized Criminal Behavior
    LYMAMC02_0131730363.qxd 12/17/08 3:19 PM Page 59 2 THEORIES OF ORGANIZED CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR This chapter will enable you to: • Understand the fundamentals behind • Learn about social disorganization rational choice theory theories of crime • See how deterrence theory affects • Explain the enterprise theory crime and personal decisions to of organized crime commit crime • Learn how organized crime can be • Learn about theories of crime explained by organizational theory INTRODUCTION In 1993, Medellin cartel founder Pablo Escobar was gunned down by police on the rooftop of his hideout in Medellin, Colombia. At the time of his death, Escobar was thought to be worth an estimated $2 billion, which he purportedly earned during more than a decade of illicit cocaine trafficking. His wealth afforded him a luxurious mansion, expensive cars, and worldwide recognition as a cunning, calculating, and ruthless criminal mastermind. The rise of Escobar to power is like that of many other violent criminals before him. Indeed, as history has shown, major organized crime figures such as Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano, the El Rukinses, Jeff Fort, and Abimael Guzmán, leader of Peru’s notorious Shining Path, were all aggressive criminals who built large criminal enterprises during their lives. The existence of these criminals and many others like them poses many unanswered questions about the cause and development of criminal behavior. Why are some criminals but not others involved with organized crime? Is organ- ized crime a planned criminal phenomenon or a side effect of some other social problem, such as poverty or lack of education? As we seek answers to these questions, we are somewhat frustrated by the fact that little information is available to adequately explain the reasons for participating in organized crime.

    Beyond Wildlife Crime: Realist Social Relations Crime Scripts of the Illegal Taking of Deer Orlando Goodall This thesis is submitted in candidature for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 201 9 Cardiff School of Social Sciences Cardiff Universit y iv Dedication To my mother, Katherine, who provided me with the multiple conditions of existence to pursue my work. And to my father, Peter, the rural worker. v vi Acknowledgements This research was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council. The research was supervised by Dr Adam Edwards and Professor Mike Levi, at Cardiff University. I am very grateful to the experts who kindly gave me their time, thoughts and experiences. Without their contributions this thesis would not exist. Thank you to Simon Avery, Melissa Mendez, Raj eev Gundur, Ashley Jones, Ben Bailey , Andrew Seaton, Mark Berry, Xris Middleton, Radu Cinpoes, Mike Levi, and the realist of Realists; Adam Edwards. Special heartfelt thanks to Cheryl Claxton. vii viii Abstract This thesis explains the organisational characteristics of the illegal taking of deer and the illicit processing of venison in the rural West Country. The thesis conceptualises these offences as mundane fauna crimes that are internally related to grey game enterprise. It argues that these original terms supersede the categories of the wildlife crime of poa ching and offer an enhanced analytical precision to the problem. The thesis is a revelatory case study, with no existing literature on the case in the British context. Critical realism is used to explain the interactions of a diversity of necessary relatio ns and the contingent conditions which enable or constrain those diverse determinations.

  • The Theory of Successful Criminal Entrepreneurs
    THE THEORY OF SUCCESSFUL CRIMINAL ENTREPRENEURS Khaled Alnkhailan BA Criminology and Criminal Justice MA Sociology Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Law Queensland University of Technology 2017 Keywords Criminal entrepreneurs, organised crime, non-hierarchical structured organised crime, modus essendi, modus operandi, modus vivendi, leadership, vision, brokerage, bribery, blackmail, mentors, role models, human capital, the theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs. The theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs i ABSTRACT As typological category, criminal entrepreneurs have a different modus operandi from most traditional criminals. This study develops a theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs, operating in non-hierarchically structured organised crime. Successful criminal entrepreneurs cannot be described through classic criminological theories such as low self-control theory. The theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs provides an understanding of the leadership of criminal entrepreneurs which includes vision, leadership style and orientation, in addition to their identity. The theory also provides an understanding of the operational approaches used by successful criminal entrepreneurs in addition to the use of their social networks. The theory of successful criminal entrepreneurs argues that successful criminal entrepreneurs start their careers with a clearly defined vision. Criminal entrepreneurs then lead people towards their vision with a charismatic leadership
