Carlo Morselli further utilizes this relational approach to illustrate how early success and long-term survival in criminal enterprise are achieved, and how criminals' networks of contacts and opportunities can insulate them from potentially career-damaging forces such as law enforcement and fellow criminals."--Jacket.Criminal behaviorCase studiesCriminalsSocial networksCriminal psychologyCase studiesOrganized crimeCase studies.Electronic books.
