SOC 4010: Organized Crime
3.00 Credits
Austin Peay State University
Prerequisite: SOC 1010; Description: Organized crime refers to criminal activity involving multiple offenders who operate in a structured manner for purposes of sustaining profits from an illegal activity. There are different forms of organized crime with the more conventional image being that of illegal activities committed by basically criminal organizations such as the Mafia, Triads, the Vory, etc. However, another form of highly organized crime is that which is committed by otherwise legitimate organizations such as corporations. Since this course is entitled organized crime, not "crime organizations," we will explore both forms of the problem looking for common threads of causation and control.
