$aIn this book, "Asian Organized Crime and the Anglosphere," the author uncovers the multifaceted phenomenon of Asian Organized Crime (AOC) and its profound impact on nation-states, with particular emphasis on English-speaking countries. From the United States and Canada, to the United Kingdom, to Australia and New Zealand; each chapter delves into the intricate dynamics and transnational operations of Asian criminal groups. The book explores the diverse responses and strategies employed by these countries, shedding light on the categories of AOC, ranging from traditional criminal activities rooted in Asian countries to high-tech transnational crimes that have rapidly expanded into Western nations. Readers will gain insights into the presence and impact of prominent Asian criminal groups operating within the Anglosphere. Focusing on national and homeland security implications, this book equips professionals, students, practitioners, and academics with the knowledge to understand, counter, and combat Asian organized crime. 410 0$aAdvanced Sciences and Technologies for Security Applications Series 606 $aOrganized crime$zAsia 606 $aOrganized crime$zUnited States 606 $aTransnational crime$zAsia 606 $aTransnational crime$zUnited States 615 0$aOrganized crime 615 0$aOrganized crime 615 0$aTransnational crime 615 0$aTransnational crime 700 $aLin$b Leo S.
