Progressing from the activities of organised crime groups previously covered (the ‘who’), this module examines numerous thematic processes associated with organised crime (the ‘what’). Crucially, the organised crime paradigm itself will be critically interrogated in order to examine how crime develops and thrives in otherwise legitimate structures, markets, and businesses. Throughout the module, a focus will be maintained on transnational issues and potential interventions. A core aim of the module is to situate organised crime within its various historical, political-economic, legal, and socio-cultural settings, thereby critiquing the value of an ‘organised crime’ framework in explaining the phenomena under consideration. In turn, this critique will enable students to develop rigorous assessments concerning the nature, organisation, and governance of organised crime within contemporary settings. Some of the subject content may change from year to year due to continuous developments in the field.

You will be taught by an expert teaching team whose expertise and knowledge are closely matched to the content of the modules on the course.
