Gambling, Crime and Society, Hardback Book

Gambling, Crime and Society Hardback

Hardback

Description

This book explores the manifold actual, possible and probable interconnections between gambling and crime in the context of the increased availability of wagering activities across many regions of the world.

It examines the impact of the proliferation and propinquity of land-based betting establishments on crime, the role of organised crime in the provision of both licit and illicit forms of gambling, as well as problem gambling, crime and the administration of criminal justice.

It also assesses the links between gambling, sport and corruption and the dimensions of crime that takes place in and around internet gambling sites.

A thought-provoking study, this will be of particular interest to scholars in the fields of sociology, criminology and social policy.
