The Politics of Controlling Organized Crime in Greater China

This book explores the specific role of government institutions and agencies, notably the police, in controlling organised crime and cross-border crime in Greater China. Drawing heavily on original empirical data, it compares the both the states of the People¿s Republic of China and Taiwan, as well as city-states Hong Kong and Macao. It argues that the capacity of crime control across Greater China has been expanded through regional and international police cooperation as well as anti-crime campaigns, and will be of great interest to students and scholars of Chinese politics and criminology more broadly.
