Organized Crime: A Very Short Introduction By: Georgios A Antonopoulos, Georgios Papanicolaou [Audiobook]

Author: Georgios A. Antonopoulos, Georgios Papanicolaou
Narrated by: Steven Crossley

For many people around the world, instances of what is described as organized crime may be part of their everyday experience; in their neighborhoods, their streets, and the places they work and live. Policymakers, law enforcement, and the media rarely fail to bring up the issue when discussing the nature and seriousness of contemporary criminal threats, and the appropriate responses toward them. Many more people are familiar with the notion of organized crime, as the film and TV industry regularly draw on fictional and real figures and situations.

In this Very Short Introduction, Georgios A. Antonopoulos and Georgios Papanicolaou uncover the reality of organized crime in our world today. Shining a light on the people involved in organized crime, Antonopoulos and Papanicolaou question whether the term “organized” is used to evoke the image, the operations, and power of a legitimate organization, such as a corporation. Discussing whether there are particular crimes that the label “organized crime” applies to, or if any crime can be organized, they also consider what happens when organized crime extends beyond borders.
