Criminal Underworld and the Suppression of Hypothesis
Abstract
There are two separate interpretations that can be ascribed to the term "organized crime." It is possible that a broad definition of "organized crime" would include deviant behavior that is motivated by a need for profit or control. The aforementioned term, on the other hand, is now extensively used in casual speech and has successfully gained a meaning that is equal to gangsters in general or, more specifically, to the "Mafia" or other groups that are comparable. The solution that has been proposed for the problem of organized crime in this context is to increase the legal authority of particular country states and the global influence of the international community. This is because it is generally acknowledged that these groups encompass the entire world. In order for governments to effectively tackle the threat that organized crime poses, they need to invest more funding to enhancing the capabilities of domestic law enforcement and to fostering international collaboration. It is the purpose of this study to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the many national and international efforts that have been made to identify and combat organized crime. This is done with the intention of bringing to light deficiencies in the methods that are currently being utilized to address this widespread issue. On the other hand, contrary to the widespread notion, this issue is not nearly as well regulated as it is commonly believed to be, and it is rarely totally isolated from society and from recognized organizations.
