The psychology of organised crime
Manage episode 321487285 series 2983374
In this episode I’m talking to Dr Giovanni Travaglino about organised crime and criminal groups - how they gain influence and power and affect people’s lives - and what can be done to address them.
We’ll see how organised crime is a bigger part of our lives and the global economy than we might think. We’ll explore the surprising role that criminal groups play in local communities and the steps they take to inspire loyalty in people. We’ll also explore how psychology can help us to tackle organised crime and criminal groups around the world.
Giovanni is Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Psychology at Royal Holloway, University of London. His research focusses on the psychology of organised crime and criminal governance.
