Reviews

The Politics of Controlling Organized Crime in Greater China is an informative survey of organized crime in Greater China (the mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau) in the 21st century. The booming economies in the region, mainly driven by a rising China, are associated with the increasing incidence of organized crime activities. The politics is chosen by author Sonny Lo to help us understand causes and solutions of organized crime in Greater China. The significance of this research is clear, given the deepening integration of this region and its intensifying impact, for better or worse, upon the world. Ming Xia, China Quarterly June 2016
