It’s not illegal, it’s just immoral? The relationship between organised crime and the upper-world
Young, Mary Alice
Authors
Abstract
Organised crime is an economic enterprise, indeed Sellin observed just such a point in 1963 (Sellin, 1963). The symmetries with successful legitimate organisations are uncanny. Organised crime and upper-world business ventures have profit at their core. Increasing income and minimising losses are a key part of the money management for both types of organisation. The ability to diversify incomes by dipping in and out of various trades to sustain the business is also a commonality between both the licit and illegal business venture.
