Recenzii
This book is well suited for undergraduate classes within criminology or criminal justice programs that focus on policy. The language in the book is written in a manner that citizens outside of criminology will benefit as well. . . .For those in the criminology field, most well-trained criminologists will be familiar with several of the examples of well-documented programs and studies provided in the book, such as problem-oriented policing and drug treatment courts. . . .Mathew Yeager has given us a worthy compendium of Haller's major work and contributions on the subject of how organized crime is actually organized, including some of Haller's publications which are now difficult to find.
It is organized to showcase three of Haller's unique contributions to the field: rediscovery and highlighting of the circumstances and content of John Landesco's 1929 study of organized crime in Chicago; a description and commentary on the activities of the Angelo Bruno family in Philadelphia; and an analysis...of Illegal Enterprise accompanied by studies of three particular businesses, gambling, loan sharking and bootlegging. They are tied together through Haller's self-perception "as a social scientist, using the tools of a trained historian".... [I]f I were designing an introductory course in Organized Crime, Illegal Enterprisewould be one of the books on my recommended reading list.
This monograph brings together the major works and unpublished papers of Mark Haller, whose scholarship spans more than forty years. . . . His pioneering work on organized crime in the United States influenced the move away from organized crime as a bureaucracy of evil to a modern view that recognizes the phenomenon as an enterprise of interconnected partnerships devoid of an overarching leadership. . . . This book is a valuable addition to the literature on organized crime, providing a one-volume source for the essential work of Mark Haller.
