Description

Gangs have long been a social and criminal threat to society. Addressing the issue as a criminal justice and public policy problem, this volume describes what gangs are, what differentiates them from each other, how they share similarities, and how they fit into contemporary American culture. The authors explore the history and structure of gangs, reveal their clandestine activities, and analyze their social impact. The book also includes information on gender issues in gangs and provides insight into how gangs impact American educational institutions. Offering an insiders account, the book provides in-depth profiles of specific gangs.
