Summary

"Organized crime research strives to add to the often elusive evidence about how organized crime operates and who is involved. Different approaches to defining organized crime, ethical data collection and access, as well as meaningful academic–practitioner engagements, are continuing challenges. This collection shows that many of these challenges are potentially surmountable, although a systematic research agenda is yet to emerge. The current piecemeal approach to researching organized crime across various academic, private sector and government agencies’ interests can lead to duplication and uncoordinated efforts. However, this disconnect also allows room for innovation and experimentation essential to better understanding of organized crime and, if channelled to greater investment in systematic data collection and linking, could serve to develop methods to counter its influence on Australia and its neighbours." --Page 7.
