This volume provides insights on how recruitment patterns develop
for two related types of criminal networks: organized crime and
terrorism. It specifically explores the social, situational,
psychological, and economic drivers of recruitment. Although
organized crime networks and terrorism networks can differ in
underlying goals and motivations, this volume demonstrates common
drivers in their recruitment, which will provide insights for crime
prevention and intervention. The goal of the book is to explore the
current knowledge about these common drivers, as well as highlight
emerging research, to identify and prioritize a research agenda for
scholars, as well as policymakers. The research presented in this
work aims to fill existing gaps in the knowledge of recruitment to
both organized crime and terrorism. For each area, it provides a
systematic review of the existing research on social,
psychological, and economic drivers of recruitment. It then
presents findings from independent original research aimed to
explore new ground not covered in these previous studies. The
contributions to this volume were the result of a research project
funded by a European Union Horizon 2020 grant, and present a
diverse, international mix of expertise and cases. It will be of
interest to researchers in criminology and criminal justice, as
well as related fields such as sociology, psychology, and
international relations. Chapter 13 of this book is available open
access under a CC BY 4.0 license.
