The Politics Of Controlling Organized Crime In Greater China (Routledge Contemporary China Series)

This bookexplores the specific role of government institutions and agencies, notably the police, in controlling organised crime, corruption and cross-border crime in Greater China. Drawing heavily on original empirical data which compares both a dejure nation-state like the Peoplee(tm)s Republic of China and ade facto nation-state such as Taiwan, as well as city-states like Hong Kong and Macao, all in an increasingly economically integrated region where human interactions have been enhanced through improved trade relations, tourism, and increased individual freedom, Sonny Lo has produced a book that will be of huge interest to students and scholars of Chinese politics and criminology more broadly.
