The ubiquity of the internet and social media has influenced the
lives of people across the globe, including young people involved
in street gangs and troublesome youth groups. This development
raises important questions about the causes, features, and
consequences of online gang behavior, as well as the consequences
of this new phenomenon for gang prevention and intervention. In
this edited volume, members of an international network of gang
researchers, the Eurogang Program of Research, present findings and
insights from recent academic gang studies focused on the use of
internet and social media. It focuses on online features of gangs
and the consequences of social media for the study of these groups.
The second section of the book focuses on the meaning of online
media for the prevention, monitoring and intervention of gangs, and
for gang disengagement processes. This is the first volume focused
on the role of internet and social media in the study of gangs.
Providing much needed insights into online gang processes, it will
appeal to students and researchers interested in gangs and juvenile
delinquency, and to professionals, practitioners, and policy-makers
working on preventing or reducing gang involvement and delinquent
behavior.
