Historical Gang Research Methods
This chapter gives an overview of the many historical research methods that have been neglected by gang researchers. Contrary to the longstanding view that historical research is not “scientific,” this chapter demonstrates numerous types of historical research methods, ranging from using archival materials and other primary sources to oral history and newspapers. Often eschewed by social scientists, historical research methods can supplement othe…

Global Organized Crime
In the maelstrom of globalization and cyberspace, organized crime continues to defy definition. A diverse array of activities is perpetuated by criminal organizations, criminal groups and associations, and gangs, and it is clear that one specific label is no longer adequate. This book offers a uniquely global approach to organized crime and the multitude of forces that shape it in the 21st century. As well as discussing definitions of and the his…
Dirty Deeds
Most western historians, especially those focused on California history, are familiar with the San Francisco Vigilance Committees of 1851 and 1856. But the full story of the 1856 Vigilance Committee, the largest vigilante group in U.S. history, has never been fully told, until now, thanks to the well-researched and written Dirty Deeds: Land, Violence, and the 1856 San Francisco Vigilance Committee, by Nancy J. Taniguchi. Taniguchi is a professor …

This book offers a comprehensive, multidimensional look into the major activities, groups, causes, and policing strategies related to global organized crime. Global Organized Crime: A Reference Handbook examines global organized crime dating back to its 17th-century roots.

Terrorist Hostage-Taking and Kidnapping
This study examines whether there is a consistent pattern in terrorist hostage-taking and kidnapping. Script theory, developed in the discipline of cognitive psychology, explains that human behavior, whether brutal or benevolent, typically has a certain pattern to it because every human is programmed to some extent by learned experience; this experience, or script, can determine how an individual [hostage-taker/kidnapper] will respond to a partic…
The Kurdish Workers Party (PKK) as Criminal Syndicate
Scholars have long recognized that terrorist groups have engaged in transnational organized crime activities. But the question that comes up is, "When does a criminal enterprise become a terrorist group or vice versa?" Terrorist groups have used physical violence, participated in weapons and drug trafficking networks, immigrant smuggling, and money laundering. More recently a number of terrorist groups have established what Jonathan White has ref…
Prisons and Prison Systems
Prisons have undoubtedly changed over the years, as have penal practices in general, though more so in some countries than others. Prisons and prison systems have long been an overlooked part of criminal justice research, and as a result, limited material is available on many institutions. This comprehensive encyclopedia provides a historical overview of institutions and systems around the world, as well as penal theories, prisoner culture and li…

Drugs in the classroom
This article suggests various techniques and strategies for integrating historical research methods into the drug education classroom. While most criminal justice programs offer courses on drug education, instruction has typically concentrated on policy issues. With little historical perspective on the roots of the drug problem, students are too often left with a one-dimensional perspective: that all illegal drug use should be criminalized. Like …
