Constructing ‘Indigenous People’ Reproducing Coloniality’s Epistemic Violence
Migration, Trafficking, and the Greek Economy
This article interrogates the manifestations and implications of the intertwining of migration policies and the global prohibition regime against human trafficking in Greece. In a dramatic reversal of long historical patterns, post-cold war Greece became a migration destination country, receiving a large number of migrants. While Greece’s policies approached the phenomenon as an administrative embarrassment, migrant populations joined the country…
‘Illegal labour practices, trafficking and exploitation’
Technology in Human Smuggling and Trafficking
The digital routes of human smuggling? Evidence from the UK
Organized Crime
Organized Crime: A Very Short introduction examines the people involved in organized crime and questions whether the term ‘organized’ is used to evoke the image, operations, and power of a legitimate organization, such as a corporation. Are there particular crimes where the label ‘organized crime’ fits, or can any crime be ‘organized’? What happens when organized crime extends beyond borders?

Unequal Crime Decline
In the early 1990s, the public in the United States were bombarded with accounts about the ‘super-predator’—a young, primarily black, trigger-happy individual, who would prey on law-abiding citizens and would cause a huge increase in criminality. A gloomy picture of what was supposed to happen throughout that decade was painted. However, instead of the supposed unprecedented increase, the United States experienced a prolonged and persistent fall …
The Political Economy of Greek Policing
This article interrogates historical developments, modern structures and future trends in Greek policing from the viewpoint of contemporary neo-liberal policing and social theory. We argue throughout this article that although neo-liberal thinking has indeed recently crept into the rhetoric and logics of Greek governance, the particular social, geographical and political history of the Hellenic Republic has muted these tendencies significantly fo…
